Description:

Education in Stressful TimesHere at NEPC, we are holding close our small community and the larger communities to which we belong. Those of us who are parents or guardians are also doing our best to comfort our children and create healthy living and learning environments. We remind ourselves and each other to be generous and understanding when we fail to accomplish our immediate goals for ourselves and our children. This crisis will have impacts, large and small. The hardships it’s creating are universally felt, yet they fall hardest on our society’s most vulnerable. The crisis is also highlighting the multiplicity of demands we’ve put on our public schools and the people working in them, providing a powerful reminder that we’ve entrusted our schools to meet the needs of our children in wide-ranging ways. We are grateful to our neighbors, parents, teachers, children and youth, as well as the workers in our grocery stores and warehouses, our delivery people and public safety workers, and of course those working in health care facilities. As we move forward, we at NEPC promise to continue our efforts to increase the equity and effectiveness of public education and to support democratic deliberation about education policy. NEPC's Blog Post of the Day features a selection of interesting and insightful blog posts that apply a researcher perspective to important education policy issues. The views expressed by the bloggers are entirely their own. If you have read or written a research-related blog that you would like to have considered for reposting as a Blog Post of the Day, please email us at nepcblog@gmail.com The Initiative on Diversity, Equity, and Learning (IDEAL) uses collaborations and strategic communication of research to assist policy makers, educators, the media, and the public in understanding research related to equity and racial diversity with the goal of advancing opportunities and school success for all students. The National Education Policy Center seeks to identify and recognize excellent public high schools that actively strive to close opportunity gaps and build on student strengths by creating and supporting engaging learning opportunities for all their students.The Schools of Opportunity that we recognize will serve as models, informing and inspiring the efforts of educators and communities throughout the US to become high schools that promote both excellence and equity.
