Matthew Hornbeck, principal of Hampstead Hill Academy—a K-8 public school in Baltimore City—talks with Dr. Josh Sharfstein about the challenges of virtual learning, the excitement and fears of teachers and staff, and plans to reopen for in-person learning in the coming weeks. They also talk about how the vaccine might make a difference in giving confidence to reopen, and how some teachers are centering the wellbeing of students and their families in their decision to get vaccinated.
