District and School Leaders’ Continued Approaches to COVID-19 Pandemic Recovery
October 2023
In this report, we continue to explore how schools and districts supported student learning and well-being as they resumed in-person schooling in the 2021-22 and 2022-23 school years.
We capture the perspectives of district, school, and teacher leaders to surface best practices for supporting recovery from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. We ask:
- How did districts approach COVID-19 pandemic recovery of student learning and wellness in the 2021-22 and 2022-23 school years?
- What strategies, if any, were common across districts or specific to local contexts?
- What conditions enabled or challenged district success in recovering student learning and supporting student well-being?
