Abstract: Overnight schools across the nation were required to switch to virtual instruction due to the pandemic COVID-19. The purpose of this mixed methods study was to examine the influence of COVID-19 on campus leaders’ use and attitudes towards technology. A purposeful sample of 171 Texas K-12 campus administrators completed the Principal’s Computer Technology Survey and 10 of those participated in interviews. Survey findings indicated campus leaders’ use and attitudes towards technology were significantly influenced by COVID-19. The qualitative analysis provided supporting evidence for the importance of campus leaders to provide teachers with more emotional and behavioral support.
