Distance Learning Readiness Kit
UNESCO is reporting 862 million students are out of school due to coronavirus and that COVID-19 has the potential to risk students' "right to education."
As school closures continue, district leaders are working to adopt distance learning as a vehicle to continue teaching and learning. We’ve put together a number of resources to help you keep learning going anywhere, anytime during this unprecedented time.
