Online and Hybrid Learning: An Equity Checklist for Schools
Resource Type: Current Law & Policy
Focus Area: Ensuring Equal Access
The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated many of the longstanding inequities in our educational system. Black and Brown students, students living in poverty, and other historically underserved groups have been disproportionately harmed by the shift to online learning. To ensure that these students are not left behind, schools must focus on equity and respond flexibly to the individual needs of diverse student populations. Schools will need support for this work from every level of government.
This checklist is a guide to ensure that schools providing online instruction are equitably serving students in the new school year. Access the full checklist here.
