Original Note:
While schools closed for many fewer days during the Spanish Flu pandemic than during COVID (for many reasons), it was common for them to be closed especially since the Spanish Flu was much more virulent among younger, healthier populations. See the paper referenced below. https://www.nber.org/system/files/working_papers/w28246/w28246.pdf
