Prior to the end of the year, underclassman awards were distributed to students during homeroom. This school year was a year of new experiences from safety guidelines to online class days due to Covid-19. Students were required and asked to make new adjustments like never before. Each student was a true example of resilience and poise as patience was exhibited daily. Coursework and academics were a priority evening during such trying times. Though a proper awards ceremony could not be held, students were honored for their achievement by receiving certificates of recognition.
