In March 2020, every school in America shut down—something that had never happened before, not even during world wars or the Spanish flu. Parents suddenly became teachers, tech support, and full-time caregivers, all while juggling work and survival during a global pandemic.
In this episode of The Journalism of Everything Podcast, we dive into how COVID-19 school closures permanently changed the relationship between parents, teachers, and public education. From burnout and homeschooling booms to shifting trust and the rise of culture wars in classrooms, we unpack the lasting impact of those years.
I sit down with veteran elementary school teacher Nicole Fox to discuss how parents’ attitudes toward educators have changed since COVID, what teachers are really facing in classrooms today, and why distrust of schools continues to grow.
If you’re a parent, teacher, or just curious about the future of education in America—this episode is for you.
Topics in this episode:
The nationwide shutdown of schools in 2020
How parents coped with burnout, job loss, and hybrid learning
Why parental trust in schools collapsed
The homeschooling surge and its surprising diversity
Teacher shortages, culture wars, and mental health crises
An honest teacher’s perspective on post-COVID classrooms
