COVID-related school closures affected all students. But for
students who needed in-person schooling most-students with
disabilities, English learners, and students living in poverty-the
impact was disproportionate and devastating. One research calls it
"the largest increase in educational inequity in a generation."
Unfinished Learning follows families as they navigate the
challenges of virtual learning, from figuring out how to log on to
a sometimes unstable school platform to ensuring that their child's
special education needs were addressed. It looks at what data is
now showing about which students are (and which students are not)
recovering from learning lost during the pandemic. The book also
traces the parent activism that arose as a result of school
closures. It explores two elections that followed close on the
heels of school reopenings: the 2021 election for governor in
Virginia and the 2022 recall of school board members in San
Francisco. Many of the conclusions drawn by pundits about both
those elections do not fit with either the polling or with parent
interviews. Finally, the book offers some suggestions on how
schools, families, and communities can prepare for the inevitable
next school closures.
