The COVID-19 pandemic wreaked havoc throughout school systems across the world during the 2020-2021 school year. Riyadh School District in Saudi Arabia effectively transitioned from in-person student learning to remote student learning as a result of effective planning of resources and effective processes for implementation of remote learning. Employing Stufflebeam's CIPP evaluation model, an input evaluation and a process evaluation were conducted to shed light on the planning process employed to distribute resources and implement remote learning in a large school district in Saudi Arabia. Centralized supports for schools, including proper national funding, coordinated national teaching supports, and effective communication, aided Riyadh School District in the effective implementation of on-line learning for students.
