Naimark and colleagues use a simulation model calibrated to the COVID-19 pandemic in Ontario, Canada, to estimate the association of opening kindergarten through grade 12 (K-12) schools with total infections across the city. They projected that schools opening was associated with a much smaller impact than other community-based nonpharmaceutical interventions (NPIs). This research adds to a growing body of literature addressing the risk of COVID-19 in K-12 schools and the association of in-person school with the trajectory of the pandemic.
