Did you actually read the article? These kids will be spread all over the city with limited groups of 15. They will use libraries, museums and any available spaces they can find to utilize. There are other interesting details too. Sounds like a brilliant way to get parents back to work and keep city workers busy. Lessens unemployment for many. Helping others and thinking outside of the box does not have to be a negative.

How is this different from kids in school with teachers you ask?

They are calling them "learning labs" so that's different.

It must be based on "science and medical experts"
