After attending school virtually or semi-virtually for the past year, students in communities across Wisconsin said they found ways to cope with being away from teachers and friends but looked forward to getting back to regular in-person classes. Students also spoke in favor of more mental health services and mental health literacy.
Feedback from 160 middle and high school students about their learning environments and their mental health during the pandemic was published in mid-April in a report titled “Voices of Wisconsin Students Project: Learning, Coping and Building Resilience During COVID-19.”
