kristina partsinevelos has details on this. hi, kristina. >> reporter: hi, david.ndemic. take, for example, success academy right behind me. they have opted now to close and stay completely remote until the end of the academic year, so that affects 20,000 students across the area. the school network also has decided, too, that they're going to cut short the academic year. they're going to end on may 28th with the hopes that more people like teachers and staff will get vaccinated so they can reopen early, on august 2nd. we know president biden has signed an executive order to accelerate the reopening of schools. he did allocate $130 billion in financial aid to public schools, but we can see there are many situations where schools are closing, and it shows we may be behind that goal. right now the federal government does not have data they can provide to the public in regards to which students are in remote learning, which ones are in a traditional class. but if you take, for example, this graph of that i got, they've been monitoring it. in the middle of america, it'
