Abstract

Abstract The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has disrupted the educational system not only in regard to teaching and learning, but also in relation to the other services and supports (mental health services, meal and nutrition programs, and so on) provided to students and families. School district Web sites are critical access points for families during this crisis to learn information about key resources being provided during school closure. This study used content analysis to examine whether school district Web sites in one southeastern state provided information about COVID-19 and 11 other resources. Findings indicate that about half of the Web sites provided both COVID-19 information and additional resources. Few districts provided information on resources for students with disabilities, a subgroup of students at heightened vulnerability during this time of virtual learning. Approximately a third of school district Web sites provided no information on COVID-19 or any of the other resources. The article concludes with a discussion of the implications for school social workers related to crisis response and leadership around contributing to efforts that aim to address educational disparities and inequities and maximize student success during this time of crisis.

新冠肺炎期间的家庭资源：学区网站上提供的信息的内容分析

新型冠状病毒(COVID-19)大流行不仅在教学方面扰乱了教育系统，而且在为学生和家庭提供的其他服务和支持(心理健康服务、膳食和营养计划等)方面也受到了影响。在这场危机中，学区网站是家庭了解学校关闭期间提供的关键资源信息的关键接入点。这项研究使用内容分析来检查东南部一个州的学区网站是否提供了有关COVID-19和其他11种资源的信息。调查结果表明，大约一半的网站既提供COVID-19信息，也提供额外资源。很少有学区提供有关残疾学生资源的信息，残疾学生是在虚拟学习期间易受伤害的学生群体。大约三分之一的学区网站没有提供有关COVID-19的信息或任何其他资源。文章最后讨论了学校社会工作者在危机应对和领导方面的影响，这些工作旨在解决教育差异和不公平问题，并在危机时期最大限度地提高学生的成功。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
