How badly do we need day camp to open?

It would definitely make things easier, but is it more or less important than school?

All else being equal, day camp is less important. However, people are desparate for a return to normalcy, and the time for day camp is fast approaching.

If there were an optional combination of day camp and summer school, would that be a return to normalcy?

Yes, that would be a good compromise. Having an hour of learning every day with fun the rest of the day can work well.

Kids don't always go to a day camp affiliated with their own or any school. Learning from a different curriculum wouldn't help them catch up. Preschools are generally pretty similar in the summer to "regular school," so preschoolers are not going to fall behind.
