This time on The Children’s Hour, the kids want to know more about school in the middle of a pandemic. To learn more, the Kids Crew talked with New Mexico Public Education Secretary Dr. Ryan Stewart.

We find out what it will take to allow all schools to open for in person education. Below we have posted numerous links to help kids and families understand Covid better, and know the facts about keeping kids safe and healthy.

Then, Dr. Anthony Fauci from the National Institute of Health sat down with the Kids Crew to explain why Covid-19 is so dangerous, and when kids can expect they will be getting the vaccine.
