Wife just added Zinc to our daily regimen until this 'rona blows over. 

I'm not entirely sure why, but she works for doctors so I assume she knows what she's talking about...

...and I'd probably take a cyanide tablet if she told me to.

A couple school system in California starting online only. In Ohio they haven't announced yet though the rumor mill suggests a hybrid system is very likely to start the year.

Hundreds of school board members and superintendents are proposing online-only here in AZ until at least October.  We'll see if Ducey Trump Jr goes for it, reluctantly.

What does Federal government have to do with this beyond perhaps setting out guidelines and advice?  Do they have any the power to order schools to open?

The governor can mandate statewide measures.  Or highly suggest it.  Keep schools online-only or we'll pull your funding, something like that.  Right?

It's been suggested they could try to withhold funding from schools, though their power to do that is debatable

Just go with your GideUoloTgy.

They cannot do it, and they know it.

The situation is schools are trying too figure out what to do. The Department of Education is offering no guidance other than a vague declaration that opening is good. The CDC issued guidelines on opening which the president disagreed with. With no guidance from the federal level, the states will do the work, and that is going to vary widely.

Like I've mentioned previously, the threat to kids is very low and shouldn't be a reason to keep schools closed. The issues are spread to the community and the safety of the school workers. This is more uncertain. It would be nice to have some leadership here, but you get what you pay for.
