Without parents and masked: how Knowledge Day will go into a pandemic

The Minister of Education of the Russian Federation Sergey Kravtsov asked the regions to independently decide on the format of solemn lines in schools. Some subjects and cities have already decided on plans for September 1 - for example, Moscow and Yekaterinburg refused to celebrate Knowledge Day. In the Chelyabinsk region, Blagoveshchensk and Crimea, only first-graders and graduates will be allowed on the lines. The toughest rules in some regions await parents - they will be obliged to wear masks and stand far from their children.
