On Aug. 24, Emily Dowd, 12, one of the organizers of this protest, stands in a group of students protesting the use of remote teaching as well as expressing their desire to play and support fall sports. [I organized this protest because] it’s hard for me to do online classes without getting bored and stuff so I would like to go back to school. Also sports, I know a lot of kids are looking for scholarships right now and it’s hard to do that especially with Covid[-19] going on. And not being able to play and having other schools cancel it’s going to be hard for them to actually go to college for that sport.” said Dowd.
