Ethan Crane, sophomore: “Teachers have done a good job of adapting to the new technology and being empathetic toward us students. They’ve been able to understand that learning from home can be stressful and tiring. Between giving short brain breaks, not assigning excessive homework, and keeping their lessons engaging, teachers have been selflessly making this experience a little better for the students.”

Sean Manning, junior: “Teachers are always working to keep class engaging.”

Triston Behrend, junior: “I think that teachers are doing a good job in making sure that they’re still interacting with students, even if that’s more difficult in a virtual setting.”

Nick Massabni, junior: “They are doing a good job keeping everything in control and attempting to make the classes seem as if they were in person.”

Nick Bumgardner, junior: “Teachers have done a great job making the most of a tough situation by being very accessible online for their students.”

Sam Gille, junior: “A lot of my teachers are being really understanding with the whole virtual thing and they make it easy to reach out to them for help.”

Will Zellner, senior: “I feel that most of my teachers are organized and most of the time we all feel what we are supposed to be doing.”

Maria Hanes, senior: “They make it very easy to communicate with them. Many of my teachers also keep us engaged with the lessons by allowing us to contribute our thoughts.”

Matt Schumacher, senior: “I think that the overall adaptation has been good because it can’t be an easy transition so I think they’ve been handling that well.”

Grace Del Frate, sophomore: “I think teachers are doing well at pacing our classes and not giving out an overwhelming amount of homework. Many of them have been very patient and understanding knowing we are all trying to adjust to virtual learning and balance our own home lives.”

Soo-Yin Brown, junior: “When they give breaks during the class period and post all assignments on google classroom.”

Anna Schueller, junior: “They are doing well with staying organized regarding attendance and having solid lesson plans.”
