In their own words:
"So, last year happened. Students and staff scattered across WebEx and eCampus, in constant isolation. Pencils and notebooks were replaced by Google Docs and laptops.
"Yeah, we may not have been ready for the new teachers or students, but the feeling of being back triumphed over any fear or awkwardness. We all wanted to start over, and we did.
"But now, we're back to math classes, eating in the cafeteria shoulder to shoulder, and yet, nothing was quite the same as before.

"But it wasn't easy. Even getting dressed for school was harder than it should have been, but we did it. Packing our backpacks became a chore. Our attention spans for World History lessons and Algebra II homework needed a tune-up, but it got easier.
"No matter how hard it was, we were not going to miss another year. No matter what, it was going to be better. And when we tried again, it was."
