Schools continued to provide meals and child care during the pandemic this spring, adding to their costs.
Minnesota school districts scrambling to prepare for an uncertain academic year are tallying the millions of dollars they'll have to spend - and that they could lose - as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
