In the wake of COVID-19, the U.S. pre-K-12 education system needs more than a refresh. Based on the success and popularity of the Opportunity Culture model, in this brief Public Impact recommends the means to bring critical, effective instructional and emotional supports to millions of teachers and their students--for a price tag the country can not only afford, but sustain long-term. In dozens of districts, with thousands of educators, Opportunity Culture highlights important lessons that show how U.S. education can think anew. As teachers push through their exhaustion to the end of this school year, they will confront the calls for post-pandemic change, and many will eye such calls warily. Educators and students need proven solutions that can bring them hope, joy, and educational success. These recommendations, with the combination of instructional, social-emotional, and financial support, provide that.
