As Chicago schools again settle into a “new normal,” we see increasingly pressing pandemic-driven challenges in K12 learning: declines in student performance, increased drop-out rates, decreased teacher and staff retention, and the dwindling pipeline of educators entering the system. Yet addressing these urgent issues has sparked an exciting wave of innovation, and new opportunities for philanthropic support. In this roundtable discussion, four innovators will share their recovery offerings, poised to support, and accelerate learning for Chicago students.
