In response to COVID-19 school closures, districts around the country have devised unique strategies for addressing school closures. This table aims to present an interactive database that communicates how each district has responded to this crisis.

The Center on Reinventing Public Education (CRPE) developed a large database that reviews all district plans and summarizes them in a single database.

CRPE shares, “This database tracks over 100 districts that range in size and geography, and serve nearly 10 million students. It includes the 30 largest districts in the country, members of the Council of the Great City Schools, smaller districts that participate in CRPE’s rural studies, and at least one district from otherwise unrepresented states. Please note that this is not a representative sample.”
