“Since it’s my first year, it was really weird at first, being in online classes. I had never met the teachers or any of the kids so I didn’t really feel connected. It is a lot better now that we are on campus at least a little bit so that I can see them and it feels like school. Being on campus makes me feel more motivated. Because we are mostly online this year, it has been hard to meet people and make friends. I am on the JV cheer team this year and it has been a good way to make new friends. I was nervous that I would not meet anyone but I am grateful that we are practicing in person during this hard time so that I can be part of the community.”
