This photo is a great example of the effects that COVID has on our daily lives.  The subject being the sign that says, “Face Mask Required” shows what kind of things are all around us reminding us about COVID.  I feel that the closed door in the background acts as a symbol of all the businesses that had to close due to lockdowns.

This photo of a social distancing sign is another example of the constant reminders of COVID in our lives at school. 

This photo of the door of the attendance office at our high school demonstrates how COVID has affected the way our school operates.  This door has the most amount of signs regarding COVID protocols that I could find in the school. And the fact that it is on the attendance office makes it feel like they were put there on purpose because there have been several shutdowns so far during this year at our school. It feels like the school wants to put emphasis on reducing the spread of COVID to keep attendance up.

In this collection of photos, I wanted to capture how COVID has become part of our everyday lives, specifically in school.  I felt that the best way to do this was to show the school environment from the perspective of a student, and what we see every day in school.  All around us there are reminders of the presence of COVID, the protocols that we all have to follow everyday, and the constant reminders of mask requirements and social distancing.
