Albany High School Students Return To In-Person School

Press release from Albany High School:

September 28, 2021

On August 17th, 2021, with masks on and backpacks finally full after a year of no use, Albany High students returned to school in-person. Students were feeling apprehensive about the campus fully opening again, especially with the district disregarding social distancing.

The hallways and stairwells at Albany High are consistently packed, students shoulder to shoulder with each other as they move to and from classes.

“Being in person with full class sizes makes it not possible to social distance,” says English teacher David Blinn. “It definitely feels less safe than being online, but I understand why returning to school is so important.”
