What happened to education?
When I was in elementary school, we had our normal courses you know, Math, Science, English, Social Studies, etc. We were also very fortunate to have P.E. with an actual P.E. teacher, and we also had Dance class. In Jr. High besides the already mentioned classes we also had Band, Choir, Typing, ASB, AVID, Spanish and even time for accelerated reading. By the time I was in high school we had all the choices previously mentioned and we also had French, Art, Creative Writing, Drama, Welding, Auto Tech, Woodworking, and Home Economics.

The Dangers of Being a Teacher during the Pandemic
As I am writing this I am thinking about how many of my family members and friends have died to COVID-19, I am thinking about how many of my fellow teachers have gotten sick, I am thinking of how many of my students have contracted this illness, and I am thinking about how my school insists that the teachers, staff, and students who have been caught COVID-19 in our campus have not been infected at school, but mostly at family gatherings, funerals, because they failed to wear a mask properly or at all, and a plethora of other reasons.
