Since the COVID-19 pandemic intensified in March 2020, districts nationwide have faced the difficult task of reopening schools safely and keeping them open. Now, districts must accelerate student learning and attend to the trauma and loss experienced by students and families. This brief describes reopening efforts in Tulsa Public Schools, which adopted a nimble and forward-looking recovery strategy encompassing social and emotional, as well as physical, safety. The district laid the groundwork for this strategy even before schools reopened to in-person instruction in late winter 2021, sustained these efforts through a safe and successful spring and summer, and plans to continue them into the fall. This brief is part of a Learning Policy Institute initiative to disseminate key public health research and reopening and recovery strategies to educators and policymakers.
