Abstract	Maintaining a learning community's status as a high-impact practice involves understanding the factors that contribute to their effectiveness in increasing retention, engagement, and overall academic success. By creating diverse small groups in which students are encouraged to support one another academically, both during and outside of class, the learning community's impact can extend to sociocultural development and learning. During the onset of the pandemic in the spring of 2020, the ability to socially connect and engage was threatened by the shift to remote learning. However, in my Learning Community course, brief introductions and contact information exchanges served as a catalyst for interpersonal support and cultural understanding during a challenging time.
