Barron Trump's private school will begin with virtual classes only

(CNN)Hours after President Donald Trump's Tuesday tweet to "OPEN THE SCHOOLS!!" the private school attended by Trump's youngest son has determined it will not open the school year with in-person learning.

In a letter sent to parents and obtained by CNN, St. Andrew's Episcopal School head of school Robert Kosasky announced the K-12 school will begin in early September with a virtual-learning-only plan. Barron Trump has attended St. Andrew's, which is located in a Maryland suburb of Washington, DC, since 2017; he is scheduled to start ninth grade this fall.

Kosasky wrote that the school will act under the guidance of an order sent Friday by a Montgomery County, Maryland, health official, which said private schools could not open in person until at least October 1. On Monday, Maryland Governor Larry Hogan overruled the county's decision with an emergency amendment saying it could be up to individual private schools to determine when and how they felt they should open.

Kosasky's letter to parents indicates St. Andrew's has opted to side with the county's suggestion and not the state's.

2. Many Maryland schools, public and private, are staying 'closed,'

protecting everyone.

3. Trump Should By Executive Order - Force Barron's School To Hold In-Person Learning.....

after all - he's the one that wants the schools open.

Don't be a hypocrite Don.
