What are some of the challenges kids face going back to in-person instruction?

Overcoming fear they’ve picked up through other people and the news. Feeling uncomfortable with their faces exposed after getting used to hiding behind a mask and dealing with germ phobia. Students also have the additional challenge of another recent school shooting in Uvalde, so not only are they getting used to being back in school full-time, but they also have safety concerns.
