The Millard West Forensics team gets hyped up for their first meet of the 2020-21 competition season. Although the team did not get to attend the meets in person they still worked hard to prepare for their first virtual meet. “Preparing for the first competition of the season was definitely different than any other year,” Cavalier said. “Instead of practicing looking at an audience I had to get used to looking at one focal point.”

Millard West clubs like Knitting and Crocheting club have been meeting on Zoom every Thursday to work on their projects. “We just hang out and all pull our projects out and work on them while we catch up,” knitting and crocheting sponsor Sarah Karst said. “Its really nice, honestly. We talk about whats going on with us, good shows weve watched, movies, ways this has affected us, the positives of being in quarantine, etc. - pretty much anything within reason.” This opportunity to meet online is allowing them to reconnect and talk with one another while being safe.
