Whew! It has been a school year for the record books.
Whether your kids were at home all year and logging into school virtually or going to school in person but with following new rules, wearing masks and not seeing all their friends, it was a lot, emotionally.

You re tapping into feelings and emotions that you might not be able express, says Sarah Rinner, chief program officer at Creative Action, an Austin-based nonprofit that brings art into after-school programs, including virtually during the pandemic. You can embrace what is happening.
