more than three years after the onset of the global covid-19 health pandemic, researchers are only beginning to scratch the surface of understanding how acute the long-term effects of the shuttering of schools and a shift to virtual and hybrid learning environments are having on students. recent data suggests that the covid-19 pandemic halted more than two decades of momentum in math and reading achievements. another nationwide survey indicates that k-12 reading skills across the country have dropped to a thirty-year low on average. educational inequalities were also exacerbated by the covid-19 pandemic, particularly among students with limited access to financial, social, health, and technology resources, many of whom were already struggling academically before the pandemic. one effective method for combating learning loss created by the covid-19 pandemic is for teachers to implement personalized learning in their schools and classrooms.

happy teacher appreciation week! this time of year is truly special to me. for 7 years, i worked as a classroom teacher. it was the hardest job i ever loved. supporting my students academically, contributing to a positive school culture and communicating with families and community members, all made teaching such a wonderful professional experience. in my role as a design principal at 瑞士vs喀麦隆亚盘赔率 , i no longer work in the classroom, but i use the skills to support school leaders and districts.

i’ve gotten into strength training recently. i never thought this would be the path for me, a cardio lover, but after a recent foot injury, i needed to step away from running and try something new. i explored apps and training plans, trying to find the right fit for my schedule and preferences. as a consultant who has helped dozens of districts design and implement strategic plans, i also knew i could apply some of the principles we use when supporting districts to my weightlifting journey. in our work, we’ve found that the successful implementation of a strategic plan comes down to three key areas:

the bright morning sun floods in through the yawning glass windows and casts long shadows in the front of the classroom. my colleague and i and about ten-odd teachers sit huddled at the desks near the back; some of them are poring over resources on their screens, others using markers, pens, and paper cutouts on small chart paper. independent practice, the text underneath one of these cutouts proclaims. the teacher draws an arrow to the right, as though to sequence the steps, and then draws a sort of three-step cycle that takes up most of the space. three station rotation, the teacher then proclaims in green marker and proceeds to describe in small writing what students are expected to do in each station during her 9th grade english class.

it’s hard to believe, but we’re approaching the three-year anniversary of the covid-19 shutdown in our schools. we’ve all been through a great deal of disturbance over these past three years. one of my coworkers recently shared this article on the hidden toll of “microstress” and it resonated with me. in my work with community members across the country (teachers, staff, families, school and district leaders), i’m finding that people are tired. i have a 2 year old y’all -- i’m really tired. on any given day, change is hard. right now, it’s really hard.
