Examining the Relationship Between Different Factors and Campus Leaders’ Perceptions During Online Delivery of Instruction

In late spring of 2020, educators, students, and parents around the world felt an extraordinary ripple effect when schools shut down amid a public health emergency (McCarthy, 2020). A new world of social distancing forced educators to replace face-to-face learning with a virtual model. While higher education institutions had been increasing online learning opportunities even before the pandemic closed schools, K-12 schools had to quickly adapt to online learning (Vegas, 2020). This study will examine different factors and determine which prove to be more important in determining a K-12 campus leader’s role during distance learning.
