Abstract
There are few times in the history of education that yield circumstances so unique that the impacts have the potential to resonate for years, if not decades. The fall of the 2020 school year was just such an historical moment. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many brick and mortar school buildings were closed forcing schools and families to reexamine traditional school instruction. This article will describe the quantitative results of an online survey completed during the critical timeframe of fall 2020. Rural educational leaders who participated in the survey provided insights on access to teaching and learning technologies that affected students with and without disabilities. Impacts of the digital divide on rural schools are examined, including broadband access and reliability. The article will also provide an update on relevant changes to the digital divide that have taken place since the deployment of the survey.
