Initially, the MVHS experience was just like any other for the class of 2020 — full of memorable homecoming skits, victorious rallies and landmark moments. Several students anticipated the traditional events of every school year, and the expectations for senior year were no different. Many looked forward to cherishing their last year of high school, whether it be through school events or spending time with friends. But with the COVID-19 outbreak causing an abrupt end to the school year and imposing shelter-in-place requirements, members of the Class of 2020 found themselves confined to their homes while the most anticipated events of their senior year were canceled. Despite this turn of events, however, seniors continue to move forward — they modify their future plans and look forward to a world after quarantine, all while keeping their visions in mind. From memories of their last day in high school to the redefined second semester senior, this package explores what it means to be a member of the Class of 2020 in the midst of a global pandemic.
