"In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, schools shut in the United States, with some areas experiencing educational disruption for more than a full academic year. Duration of closures varied tremendously across states, even within the same district, with closures in some areas among the briefest globally, while other areas experienced closures longer than most other countries. Methods of instruction were similarly variable, ranging from full time, in-person classes to hybrid programs to fully virtual instruction.
