Coping with Stress of Coronavirus Crisis a Challenge for
California's Students
The mental toll of the coronavirus pandemic is unfolding inside homes throughout California, as students, parents and teachers learn to deal with a new normal of social distancing and remote learning.
All of California's four-year public universities and community colleges have shifted most in-person classes online, and nearly all of the state's K-12 school districts have closed, teachers across the state scramble to learn how to provide instruction remotely. Already-stressed parents overnight have become homeschool teachers. Students, meanwhile, are coping with missing major milestones like commencements and SATs while those in college are preparing to postpone plans for the future.
