Graduating Seniors in Colorado Had A Hard 4 Years

As if being a teenager isn't hard enough, these teens experienced a plethora of dilemmas that came with the COVID-19 pandemic.

Starting in March 2020, these high schoolers saw the world turn upside down, and life as most of us knew it completely changed.

These graduating seniors were pushed into remote learning within a blink of an eye, but that didn't stop their hustle. Our graduating seniors pushed on, eventually getting to return to in-person learning.
