Episode 34: Summer Learning Recovery

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a huge impact on education and student learning. With the uncertainty of how much learning loss has occurred, how can districts, community partners, and educators ensure that summer programming is effective in helping students recover from the pandemic?

Today, Brittany Fike and I sit down to discuss the latest research on planning and implementing effective extended learning programs to support student learning recovery. We will also be joined by Christy Schwartz, a coordinator at the West Virginia Department of Education to talk about an exciting grant opportunity to support creative and unique summer programs in West Virginia.
