What are you looking forward to about returning to school?

I’m looking forward to all the new opportunities high school will bring. Adding to that, I’m excited to meet new people and have new classes. It will also be nice to see some friends who I haven’t seen since the beginning of the pandemic.

I’m most excited to get to see my school friends and also to be able to learn. I didn’t really enjoy online learning and I rather not have to take APUSH online so I’m looking forward to actually learning in a school setting again.

I want to go back to school and see my friends and teachers again. I want to go back because online learning was not very helpful. I want to be creative and do projects with my friends. I miss helping my teachers after school and playing at recess.

I miss my friends so much...I can’t wait to see them so we can play together again. I can’t wait to meet my new teacher too and see Mrs. Tait (my 2nd grade teacher).

I’m looking forward to going back to school so I can keep myself busy at all times. I am also looking forward to getting good grades in each of my classes. Lastly, I hope to meet new people there so I could become more social.

I’m most looking forward to gym class, and seeing all my friends! I’ve missed being at school and celebrating all the fun holidays with my classmates.
