Many nights this fall, Jessica Iannacone hasn’t logged off her computer until 10 or 11 p.m.
The Greenwich science teacher, on staff at Eastern Middle School, has all the normal tests to grade, lessons to plan and questions to answer from her students and parents.
But, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, she also has to rewrite exams and assignments, adapt her curriculum to both her in-person and remote students, upload worksheets to software that she and her colleagues learned for this year, and meet with other staffers via Zoom.
