Online School Struggles

The year 2020 is probably one of the most hardest years in everyone’s life. It’s most likely hardest on online students. You’re probably wondering how, right? Although the difficulties for each grade are different, the seniors and juniors are experiencing the largest effect. Some freshmans are upset because they can’t see what school they are going to and they can’t see what it truly feels like to be in high school or in college. Juniors are working as hard as they can in their classes, preparing for the SAT and applying to colleges. But for seniors, it’s the worst because the last year of highschool is supposed to be your best, with all of your last high school celebrations, but that can’t happen because of the Coronavirus. Regardless, all students are struggling to find the motivation they once had for school, and leaving their classes has become easier than ever before.
