In March 2020, the Center on Reinventing Public Education began tracking U.S. districts’ plans for navigating school closures and distance learning. The database, which is available on CRPE’s website (www.crpe.org), draws on publicly available plans from 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.
