Breakthrough Public Schools received a CSP dissemination grant to share best practices related to facilities. When schools closed do to COVID, Breakthrough shifted practices to meet student needs, re-purposed facilities, and built community partnerships to ensure students had food and technology to continue learning. This report provides an overview of Breakthrough’s response to the pandemic, including providing technology and support of its use, meals for students, and training for teachers on distance learning.
