Effects from Covid-19 2020

In early March of 2020, Maryland officially went into lockdown and schools across the state were closed down in panic due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This meant I had to spend my last year of engineering and the end of my junior year in quarantine, doing engineering work online. We used the SkillsUSA online courses to learn about reliability, resourcefulness, and resilience. This also meant that the most important events, but less important than someone's life, were to be canceled. This included prom, graduation, SkillsUSA events, Tech Center graduation, mock-interviews, SolidWorks certification exams, etc.

For regular schooling, my high school used programs such as Schoology, Edgenuity, Edmodo, and Passport in order to still continue teaching even with the rest of the 2020 school year being cancelled.
