The good news for Palestinian parents is that their children went back to school on Saturday. The bad news for the students, nearly 80,000 of them, is that they are back to take their final high-school exams in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. Schools have been closed since March as part of Palestinian efforts to contain the coronavirus. In Gaza, police and paramedics took students’ temperatures as they entered, and the students sat spaced apart in classrooms.
