High school students say they're relieved about spending less time in school, but at the same time, miss socializing.

Quebec students like Amelia Henderson are torn. They say they miss socializing with their friends, but the thought of catching COVID-19 in school is weighing on them.

Starting next week, secondary three or Grade 9 students will join older high school students in going to school every second day to stop the spread of COVID-19. They will learn from home on the other days.Those who are already following the hybrid model say it’s made things easier. Premier François Legault has repeatedly stressed the importance of schools remaining open for the psychological well-being of students.“When you’re less social, it messes with you mentally,” said Vilene Germain, a secondary four student. “Being social and talking to other people, I feel like that plays a big role in our daily lives in general.”
