Dear Seniors of the class of 2020, Just to say that you were a member of the class of 2020 sounds really cool and something that may always have its own special ring. Conversely, on those future occasions when you tell someone that you graduated in 2020, you may hear a sigh, an “oh, that year”, “how did you do it?”, or “what was it like?” Well, those of us who were alongside have a pretty good idea.   I know that I am truly in awe of all you bring to TA on a daily basis: your unique character, your special gifts...

Dear TA Class of 2020: This is the time of year when we would be discussing where you are heading and what your summer plans are but of course we are not able to do that in the traditional manner. It is also when we, teachers, hear that you are surprised at how fast it went or that you start to show your nerves for what is ahead. The changes coming your way deserve both your excitement, reflection and nerves.  If you asked people around you about their high school graduation they probably do not have lots of specifics to share.
