"While this is certainly a unique school year, I've been excited by the support from both my fellow teachers and administration. We've been empowered to think outside of the box, engage with a variety of online platforms, and help each other to handle the challenges that this school year brings. This allows us to do what is best to enable ALL of our students to be successful, regardless of whether they are virtual or in-person."
