Overview for New Hampshire
For the 2020-21 school year, the New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services (NH DHHS) provided monthly school-level learning model data, which was collected as part of the Pandemic Electronic Benefit Transfer (P-EBT) program; data on student enrollment by learning model are not available. COVID-19 case data for the state’s schools or districts are available from the New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services. Data on when and if districts had masking policies in place for staff or students are available for districts that responded to the COVID-19 School Data Hub Masking Survey (note that a state-level mask mandate was in effect until April 16, 2021).

Note. Values may not add to 100% due to rounding. This dataset includes 184 districts in the state with learning model data for the 2020-21 school year. Pandemic schooling mode data for the 2020–21 school year were provided by the New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services (NH DHHS). Data are available between September 2020–June 2021. The predominant model reflects the most common monthly model offered by school districts over the course of the school year, and not individual student schooling mode choices. For more information about the data, please see the state's Data Details.

Note. Use the drop-down feature to compare up to three districts to the state's average. Values may not add to 100% due to rounding. These figures represent the percentage of the school year that each district offered primarily in-person, hybrid, or virtual instruction, based on the monthly schooling mode. Pandemic schooling mode data for the 2020–21 school year were provided by the New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services (NH DHHS). Data are available between September 2020–June 2021. The predominant model reflects the most common monthly model offered by school districts over the course of the school year, and not individual student schooling mode choices.

State Characteristics by Learning Model in 2020-2021
Compare the percentage of the school year in-person, hybrid, or virtual instruction was the primary mode of instruction for students by race/ethnicity, free and reduced price lunch (FRPL) eligibility, and district locale. All school district characteristics are based on data from the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) for the 2020-21 school year. Note that FRPL data are not available for AK, IL, MA, OH, VA and DC. All calculations are weighted by district enrollment size.

Assessment Outcomes by In-Person Learning
Compare the change in students proficiency in English language arts (ELA) and math between 2019-2022 by level of access to full in-person instruction during the 2020-21 school year in New Hampshire. These figures are included in the New Hampshire State Snapshot as part of the Pandemic Schooling Mode and Assessment Outcomes Data Series. More information on the Data Series and all available state briefs are available here.

Note. The distribution of students across categorizations varies. Of 155,929 students in K-12 included in the analysis, 25% had very high levels of access to in-person instruction (n=39,088), 34% had high access (n=53,216), 31% had moderate access (n=48,931), 9% had low access (n=14,694), and no students had very low access (n=0).
Assessment Data. The student assessment data represent outcomes for students in Grades 3–8 in math and ELA on the NH Statewide Assessment System (NH SAS).
Pandemic Schooling Mode Data. Pandemic schooling mode data for New Hampshire’s 2020–21 school year were provided by the New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services (NH DHHS). Data are available between September 2020–June 2021. Data reflect the predominant model used by a school or district during a given time period; students may have opted for virtual learning even if their school’s predominant learning model was in-person or hybrid.
Levels of Access to In-Person Instruction. To determine the level of access to in-person instruction in 2020-21, the COVID-19 School Data Hub (CSDH) first determined the percentage of the school year that students within each district were offered full in-person instruction, hybrid instruction, or virtual instruction. Next, districts were classified into five levels of access to in-person instruction, based on the following formula: (% of the year in-person*100 )+ (% of the year hybrid*50) + (% of the year virtual*0)."
