The Trump administration has released nonbinding guidance that teachers and other school staff are "critical infrastructure workers" as it pushes for schools to resume in-person classes this school year. In a document by the Department of Homeland Security's Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, teachers and others in the K-12 education field are identified as part of a long list of "essential" workers "who conduct a range of operations and services that are typically essential to continued critical infrastructure viability" and who "support crucial supply chains and enable functions for critical infrastructure."
