New York City high schools are set to reopen on March 22 after months of distance learning, officials announced Monday. The city’s decision to reopen again sets an important precedent, given it is home to one of the largest school districts in the country, the New York Times reported . New York City first reopened its schools last fall but switched to fully remote learning in November when the city’s coronavirus cases soared.
