The school-as-day-care thing is a societal issue (and benefit).
My wife doesn't work, and I consider that the most "Priveleged" thing about my life (not that I'm otherwise unusually privileged, but my wife not needing to work is really a big thing, IMO).
I get that many, many families rely on two working parents to live well. And the fact that it is possible because their kids are in school 8ish hours a day isn't a bad thing. I don't think our education system should be built around that, but we should acknowledge that canceling or modifying school has a big affect on parents, particularly those where both parents work.

The issue right now is teachers being sick and there not being enough subs to cover all the classes. At our high school
