In this report, the authors use American Community Survey (ACS) data to highlight different types of challenges to remote learning and point to district and educator strategies that might mitigate harm to students as districts navigate long-term school closures. Although many families will face unique circumstances and obstacles, they focus on six factors in addition to poverty: linguistic isolation, child disability status, parents in vulnerable economic sectors, single parents, crowded conditions, and lack of computer or broadband access. They describe the difficulties each circumstance presents and potential solutions for school districts.application/pdfenCreative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 Internationaleducation, higher--government policycoronavirus crisishigher education fundingstudent personnel servicesReporthttps://www.urban.org/sites/default/files/publication/102131/mapping-student-needs-during-covid-19-final_2.pdf
