eSchool+ Initiative
The eSchool+ Initiative was formed to develop tools and resources for schools to think about when and how to ethically close and reopen K-12 schools during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Initiative is a cross-disciplinary collaboration between the Johns Hopkins Consortium for School-Based Health Solutions, Berman Institute of Bioethics, and schools of Education, Medicine, and Public Health. It benefits from expertise in ethics, school health, school policy, food security, clinical medicine and education.
