Top 10 states where the most in-person learning occurred during COVID
"School closures may ultimately prove to be the most costly policy decision of the pandemic era." That's the somber conclusion made by researchers taking a fresh look at the economic and other impacts of COVID.

8 of these 10 states had Covid death rates below the national average.

I'm not claiming that in-person learning resulted in fewer deaths, but it certainly proves open schools had no correlation or causation for deaths. More importantly, these 10 states had the lowest amount of learning loss, whereas the close down states had higher rates of learning loss. According to Google AI:
COVID-19 learning loss varied significantly by state and subject, with national data as of early 2025 indicating an average deficit of nearly half a grade level in math and reading. States with the largest losses in math included Virginia, Oklahoma, West Virginia, New Jersey, Connecticut, Mississippi, Oregon, and Pennsylvania, while states with the smallest losses were Alabama, Illinois, Wisconsin, Louisiana, South Dakota, and Utah.

Resignation message from US District Court for Massachusetts Judge Mark Wolf, first appointed to the bench in 1985 by President Ronald Reagan --
“My reason is simple: I no longer can bear to be restrained by what judges can say publicly or do outside the courtroom. President Donald Trump is using the law for partisan purposes, targeting his adversaries while sparing his friends and donors from investigation, prosecution, and possible punishment. This is contrary to everything that I have stood for in my more than 50 years in the Department of Justice and on the bench. The White House’s assault on the rule of law is so deeply disturbing to me that I feel compelled to speak out. Silence, for me, is now intolerable.”
“What Nixon did episodically and covertly, knowing it was illegal or improper, Trump now does routinely and overtly. Prosecutorial decisions during this administration are a prime example. Because even a prosecution that ends in an acquittal can have devastating consequences for the defendant, as a matter of fairness Justice Department guidelines instruct prosecutors not to seek an indictment unless they believe there is sufficient admissible evidence to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.”
“Trump is also dismantling the offices that could and should investigate possible corruption by him and those in his orbit. Soon after he was inaugurated, Trump fired, possibly unlawfully, 18 inspectors general who were responsible for detecting and deterring fraud and misconduct in major federal agencies. The FBI’s public-corruption squad also has been eliminated. The Department of Justice’s public-integrity section has been eviscerated, reduced from 30 lawyers to only five, and its authority to investigate election fraud has been revoked.”
“I resigned in order to speak out, support litigation, and work with other individuals and organizations dedicated to protecting the rule of law and American democracy. I also intend to advocate for the judges who cannot speak publicly for themselves.”
“I cannot be confident that I will make a difference. I am reminded, however, of what Senator Robert F. Kennedy said in 1966 about ending apartheid in South Africa: ‘Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope.’ Enough of these ripples can become a tidal wave.”
And as Nobel Laureate Seamus Heaney wrote, sometimes the ‘longed-for tidal wave of justice can rise up, and hope and history rhyme.’ I want to do all that I can to make this such a time.”
