Reflections on School During the COVID-19 Pandemic
About the Yearbook Project
This past school year, the CMS Foundation partnered with Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools on a special project to highlight stories from diverse viewpoints on the school experience during the pandemic. Using photography and first-person accounts to capture memories and perspectives, The Yearbook offers an intimate look into the journeys of students, educators, families and community partners navigating a school year like no other.
