BROOKLINE (CBS) — An initiative in Brookline is helping educators get COVID vaccine appointments. Parents are "adopting" a teacher and registering them for a vaccine appointment so teachers don't need to spend time searching for an appointment themselves. "It's very difficult to get these appointments. The lucky people that do come across them, it's at really inconvenient times. It requires a lot of time and patience, sitting at your computer pressing that refresh button, just hoping, wishing that these appointments become available and teachers, nationwide just don't have the luxury or the time," said Lawrence School PTO President Christina Grady. Parent Masha Leuner started the Adopt-A-Teacher program for the Lawrence School in Brookline. She was shocked no one else had thought of the idea before. Read the rest on CBS Boston.
