Virginia School Division Operations During SY 2020-21: Use of Remote Technology

From the brief: "A strong majority of school divisions in Virginia guaranteed access to technology to all its students (83% for all elementary students and 92% for all secondary students). Divisions with higher concentrations of minoritized students and students from economically disadvantaged circumstances were more likely to guarantee students’ access to technology than divisions with fewer of these marginalized groups. Divisions were more likely to rely on community hotspots to assist students with connecting to the internet than to assist some or all students connecting at home. Divisions in which more residences had access to broadband internet were more likely than divisions with less access to assist students in connecting to the internet at home. Most divisions (60%) provided technological support to students, but fewer (26%) stated these supports were also offered to staff."
