2020-2021: A Year in Review

Pathfinder Editorial Board • June 4, 2021

A reflection on various notable events throughout our unusual school year.

It’s safe to say that the 2020-2021 school year will be remembered as a year like no other. Cancelations and modifications of many school-year traditions have been chalked up to the disaster that this past year was. While we may have begun the school year by clicking on “launch meeting,” on our last day of school, we will walk out of the building. If nothing else, this school year has taught us to be grateful for even the smallest moments. Through the many disappointments that this past year has held, we cannot let all of the small victories slip under the radar. Instead of characterizing this school year as a disappointment, we must find gratitude for all of the progress that we have made and all of the small moments that we were lucky enough to have. Here is a walk through our school year.

About the Contributor

Leah Schroeder, Managing Editor-in-Chief

Pronouns: she/her I am a senior this year, and it will be my fourth year on staff. The Pathfinder has pushed me out of my comfort zone, made me more outgoing and helped me to become a better writer. In school, I am involved in many clubs, and I also do field hockey and pole-vaulting. When I’m not writing for the Pathfinder, I love spending time with my friends and family, working out, reading and baking. I have definitely found a love for journalism through the Pathfinder, and I plan on continuing with journalism as a career. I hope to make the world a more positive and kind place through my writing.
