The end of the 2019-20 school year was spent on Zoom and Google Classroom, followed by summer break, which led many educators to fear students’ learning retention would slide more than normal.
Then in-person classes for Georgetown ISD students was delayed for three weeks at the start of the 2020-21 school year before families had the opportunity to select in-person or virtual learning for their students.
