Last year Chelsea Hudspeth, a Little Rock School District parent, created an option for several families that allowed kids to have the safety of virtual learning, while still getting social interaction.

“With in-person business meetings paused during the pandemic, donating our larger conference rooms to Just Communities is one way we can give back and be part of the solution to close the learning gap,” she said.

In fall 2020, parents found new ways to help their children learn amid uncertain school-district plans for school re-openings. The defining feature of the new education landscape emerging from the pandemic is that many families are no longer waiting for school-district solutions, and are giving themselves permission to choose how and where their children learn when assigned schools are closed, including finding or creating new learning opportunities.
Research on the economic impact of school closures underscores just how important it is to continue student learning. A
