Call-In Special: Coronavirus Upends Schooling For Millions Of Kids

The coronavirus pandemic has closed schools across the U.S., affecting nearly 2 million public school students . What are the educational and social impacts of this sudden shift to remote learning? What about students with special learning needs? And how might the COVID-19 crisis widen the inequities in our K-12 educational system?

On Friday, March 27, join us for an  call-in special from the New England News Collaborative. We’ll bring together voices from around our region — and we want to hear yours.

  • How is the shutdown affecting your child's education?
  • Are you a parent or teacher facing unique challenges? Or have a tip to share on how to make the best of educating from home?

Give us a call between 9 a.m. and 10 a.m. on March 27 during our live, regional broadcast. The call-in number is 888-720-9677.

You can also join the conversation by tweeting us at , or emailing next@ctpublic.org. If you'd like to leave us a voicemail, dial 860-275-7595.
