How COVID-19 affected Arizona schools and what that means moving forward

After an extended spring break, Republican Gov. Doug
Ducey closed schools for the rest of the school year on March
30, citing the risk of COVID-19. Now families have set up virtual
classrooms in their living rooms or at the dining room table. Many
were left scrambling to keep their kids learning. In this week's
episode of The Gaggle: An Arizona politics podcast, hosts Yvonne
Wingett Sanchez and Ronald J. Hansen are joined by education
reporter Lily Altavena. Together, they break down how schools
pivoted to distance learning, as well as the potential long-term
impacts of this shift.  You'll also hear directly
from Arizona Superintendent of Public Instruction Kathy
Hoffman.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit
