This mixed-method study examines the impact hybrid learning had on sixth-grade students during the COVID-19 pandemic. Under normal circumstances, students complete their coursework in a classroom with their peers under the supervision of a teacher with little disruption. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, students were required to alter their learning spaces and begin studying from home until they were able to go back to school in the fall of 2020. Even then, most schools had incorporated a hybrid learning model. With the hybrid approach, not all schools followed the same schedule so there were times when half of the students may have been learning from home while their peers were at school. An examination of how sixth-grade students were affected by the hybrid learning model during the COVID-19 pandemic can help determine what resources, if any, are needed in the event schools are required to incorporate a similar model in the future. Data were collected from 9 sixth-grade teachers from three local school districts in Northwest Ohio using a survey sent by electronic mail. Interviews were also conducted with two of the participants. Based on the findings, recommendations for additional professional development and education for both the teachers and the students are discussed.
