Ease back into full-time

Thu., May 20, 2021

This year I started high school, my brother started middle school, and my sister started college.

For all of us, school has been almost entirely remote due to COVID-19. We are all excited to go back to normal but we need to take our time with that. After a year of schooling being easy and relaxed, going back to full-on schooling is going to be very stressful. Several students will be stressed, anxious, and struggle to keep up.

As excited as I am for normal schooling I think we should still transition slowly to help students, including me, my siblings, and my classmates adjust.
