This is a globally shared experience and, while we have to remain separate we will need to get through it together.

In normal times, this would be a time of celebration on high school campuses across the country. Students would be celebrating commencement and the beginning of a new chapter in their lives. This year, however, things will be different. Students will still transition. There will still be excitement and tears but large celebrations will be replaced by private gatherings and zoom ceremonies.
The upheaval of the school year due to COVID-19 was not just felt by students. Teachers also had to adjust to a new reality, and quickly figure out how to guide students through technology rather than face to face.
In this episode, Brian Lucas interviews high school English teacher and college counselor, Jim Mahoney, about what it was like to suddenly become an online teacher, the concerns he's heard from his students about college in the fall, and what what lessons he has learned in the last months that he'll carry forward after the pandemic ends.
