Day #170 Writing Through COVID-19: Small Wins

My bar for success is limbo-low. But as I look back on today, I find reasons to celebrate:

1) The Broadcasting team filmed their first show (distanced) using personal phones instead of our usual shared cameras, sanitizing between teleprompter runs, masking in tight quarters.

2) My yearbookers continued to plug on with the completion of the 2020 yearbook that was abandoned in March.

3) My freshmen shared epistolary poems, and their classmates provided generous appreciation of their classmates' words.

4) My Journalism Intro students moved outside and maintained distance to co-write inverted-pyramid stories.

The current 14-day rolling average of positivity in COVID testing in Cass County is under 4%. This is considered to be a safe number. Yay!

But tomorrow night our football team will travel to Carroll to play their second game of the season.

Carroll County is posting a positivity rate of over 18 percent.

Let's mix it up, folks.

That's all for now.

Enough.
Be well.
Write.

Let's all pretend there is no pandemic.
