Social Distancing Also Means Learning Distancing

Whether you are a K-12 student, college student, parent, teacher or professor, you know what Covid-19 has done to our education system and our children’s education (and of course everything in our daily lives). By now, your student is hopefully nestled into his or her school program or an at-home created program to keep them engaged in learning and on track in their grade.
