Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic has been tremendously challenging for students and families. Following disruptions in critical social, health, and support services, families faced immense material hardships and emotional distress. These hardships were often more acute for students of color, who were more likely than their non-Hispanic and White peers to experience the death of a parent or a caregiver. The pandemic also had the effect of widening already large inequalities in student achievement. This brief highlights how districts can leverage family engagement as a vital strategy for continued COVID recovery. The authors first review existing research on family engagement in a post-COVID context, highlighting critical gaps in our understanding of why families have not participated in academic supports available to them. They then identify key barriers to family engagement that districts should explore in their local context when initiating partnerships with families. The authors conclude with recommended strategies for districts to more effectively communicate with families about their children's academic progress to increase family uptake and participation in COVID recovery programs.
