District Consideration Guidance To Support Learning Acceleration, Mississippi

TARGET GROUP: SCHOOLS

OBJECTIVES

·    To Support Learning Acceleration in Early Childhood Classrooms creating to help school districts think meaningfully about how to approach the upcoming school year to provide the best pathways of learning for students in school districts.

SUMMARY

The school year of 2020-2021 has been challenging for all of us. COVID-19 has affected in-person learning for over 55.1 million children across the country. Certainly, there are many more early childhood students who have been affected that have not been captured in the recorded data. During this time, educators had to reach children in multiple ways to ensure learning was taking place, as well as, take care of their own families. Social and emotional well-being became, and still is, at the forefront for all stakeholders involved in the education of our students. Learning cannot take place or be built upon without meeting students’ basic needs of feeling safe and secure in their learning environment.
