Since the COVID-19 pandemic closed schools and students transitioned into online learning, some Warriors are enjoying the switch and others wish they were back in a classroom instead.

Some students like online school because they’re doing better and find it more efficient. Campbell Burnett, 9th grade, said, “I like online school because my grades are better because of it, but I miss my friends.”  Emily Brady, 9th grade, said, “I like online school for the reason that it’s faster to get things done.”

Others do not like online school. Gabby, 9th grade, said, “I don’t like online school because I don’t get to see my friends.”
