HE'S A FOOL WHO ONLY CARES ABOUT HIMSELF. Why subject your child to getting a virus that can kill them, and the education will be laying in a coffin with you sitting up in black crying. Trump won't be there to soothe your family, because he just wants to continue to be the corrupt President he is. DON'T SEND YOUR CHILDREN BACK TO SCHOOL UNTIL THE HEALTH EXPERTS SAYS IT OKAY. DON'T LISTEN TO AN IDIOT LIKE TRUMP.
Based on current evidence it should be OK to open schools.
However, a new, more deadly, virus is due to be released this October. People will ignore it because they will think back to the overreaction to COVID-19 and as a result, millions will die.
Other countries have done all hard work first. Flatten the curve, only very gradually and carefully opening back (And shutting down again when needed.) up. Following medical advice and most importantly of all strict guidelines for the schools to follow.
"All schools" are not cookie cutter versions of each other. And there are no official standards to be met anyway. Finally, Secretary DeVos says to open "or else!" But says those decisions are up to the States. So much for "leadership."
Scientifically, there is no reason to not open schools as so many other countries have done already. Some never closed their schools.
School-age kids have extremely low likelihood to have any symptoms from COVID if they get it, and the science indicates that kids are less likely to transfer the virus to others than adults are.
While fear-mongers incorrectly believe the result will be a mass of child cases and deaths, that is not what the science and the empirical evidence show.

All part of the plan.

Almost none of this has been done in the US.

It's a complicated process with a lot of factors to consider. None of which Trump himself has to deal with.
He is worried that 53 % of parents will not even ask their kids to do homework from online classes, and get a bad education

The states need to handle those decisions. Not the feds. And damn sure not the idiot in the WH.
They're opening in Europe. They need to open here as well.
Trump is the worst president ever. He is more concerned with "ratings" than the health of the children.
