2020 Summed Up
Social Media Editor Grace Leonard sums up 2020, an absurd year (to say the least).
Ways Students Can Help This Holiday Season
Northwood High School’s clubs have put together many fundraisers that stretch from Nov. through the month of December. It is important to give back to those in need, especially since the coronavirus pandemic has affected many in our country and local community. Consider donating or participating in one or more of these efforts to spread the joy this holiday season.
Quarantine Hobbies
The coming of coronavirus indicated a massive uptick in the amount of free time students have each day. With options limited due to lockdown, lots of students have taken up new hobbies to pass the time. Let’s take a look at some of the pastimes that students have taken up.
We’re Not Removed Enough

We have the opportunity to find more ways to be extremely grateful for our miraculous life, we can see our magnificent world through more open eyes, we can learn vigorously through a new way of schooling and blah blah blah…enough with the positivity. Okay but seriously, there has been something of importance that came out of it: we aren’t having to go out and socialize. Spending days constantly on your guard with people in your little bubble can begin to wear on you. And I mean literally. People walk around dripping with the said and unsaid words of others.

Juniors and seniors have always felt pressure when searching for their perfect college.

This year many colleges have taken away the opportunity to participate in physical campus tours due to the pandemic. While picking colleges may be more difficult this year, tours don’t have to be with an official guide on campus.
