CVS said the collaboration, which also includes the National School Boards Association, is to help public school students and their families prepare for “whatever the new school year looks like during this extraordinary crisis.”

Transportation-challenged families will receive Lyft codes valued at $20 and $40 that they can use multiple times in a 60-day time frame.
