"NYC Parents Demand Better Child Safety Measures for Solar Eclipse"

Concerned parents in New York City are urging the Department of Education to take more precautions to protect their children's eyes during Monday's solar eclipse, which coincides with school dismissal. They fear that students may be tempted to look directly at the eclipse and potentially damage their eyes. Experts advise using proper eyewear to view the event safely. Some parents are calling for schools to close early or provide protective eyewear to ensure the safety of their children.
