This First Person article is the experience of Priya Migneault, a Grade 11 student in Calgary. We talked about how it was absurd that high school students were going back in person with COVID-19 numbers continuing to rise, and after students had shown they could do school online. It also made it super challenging to meet new people, interact with peers, and develop new relationships, all things I was anticipating and looking forward to in high school. At the beginning, school staff members were trying their best with mandatory sanitizer at the front of the school and at the beginning and end of each class. The worst part of being in high school during this pandemic has got to be the constant transitions from in-person to online.
