A couple of points:
Those working class parents rely on the schools as daycare. It’s not like they can telecommute.
The schools are heated and I believe every student in New Bedford gets a free lunch. An awful lot of the working poor in triple decker tenement buildings aren’t running their heat and their kitchens aren’t stocked with food for their kids.
The schools need to be open whenever possible even if attendance is optional.
