Education during Covid: California families struggle to learn
California education has never faced a bigger crisis than the Covid-19 global pandemic: the shutdown of schools and rapid shift to distance and hybrid learning is upending school traditions for families and educators. Come along as EdSource chronicles how families across the state are confronting this learning challenge. In this continuing series, we hear the stories from students and their families who are facing new demands and responding with courage and flexibility to extraordinary pressures.
This documentary illustrates the education struggles families face and how some students put off the start of their college careers, so they could support their families when the pandemic claimed their parents' jobs.
First report cards of this most unusual school year jolted many of the families participating in EdSource’s special project to chronicle how families are coping. For many, lower-than-expected grades just reinforced how much they are struggling with learning from home.
Kusema Thomas II looked forward to sixth grade in a new Los Angeles Unified magnet school but connecting problems cost him six weeks of virtual classes. Now, his father wants tutoring help.
Families across California face a school year like no other as they confront a deadly pandemic that has upended the traditions of going back to school. Come along as EdSource reports how families are learning how to cope.
This video, “Education during Covid: California families struggle to learn,” is part of a continuing project by EdSource on how California families are struggling with learning during the Covid crisis. It includes photos and videos contributed by participating families.
