Coronavirus Education and Achievement Gaps
The COVID-19 pandemic has made the digital divide more apparent now than ever before. School districts and families have struggled with the transition from in-person to online schooling. More and more students are not finishing assignments, not attending classes, and falling further and further behind. Low-income students, who often lack access to computers and the internet, have been particularly affected.
Coronavirus may be new, but the ways that underserved students are struggling are not new. We know because we’ve specialized in helping low socioeconomic students for decades. We specialize in supporting students who lack access to technology, who are food and housing insecure, who live in unstable environments, and who are at high risk for dropping out.
Our comprehensive network of multi-tiered support services provides the social and emotional support that students–and their families–so desperately need right now. With 20 years of experience providing online learning solutions, we’re in a unique position to close the learning gaps and conquer the digital divide that COVID-19 has made so readily apparent.
With the uncertainty of how the pandemic will continue to affect education looming, don’t let your students’ futures remain uncertain. Learn how we can help you expand your capacity and reach to support the students who need it most in these most trying times.
