With COVID-19 changing the way we socialize with one another, education needs to reinvent itself. The way we used to go to in-person school doesn’t work in times of COVID-19, what can we learn from this new era of education, and how can we keep moving forward? 

Some examples of topics that could fit under this theme are: having hybrid classes as a new normal, increased access to technology and internet for all kids, making sure you have access to high quality classes and learning opportunities, and increasing mental health support and resources in the school community.
