Episode 6: Trying to Stay Positive - A Teenage Perspective of the Pandemic (with guest Georgia Glowaki of Mater Dei HS)

Your Today Story with Gina Kershaw

We’ve been wondering how they’ve been coping. Especially our high school seniors.

The last three and a half years of their lives have led up to this defining moment.

But for high school seniors, these moments have been canceled, and they can never return.

The press has been weirdly silent on the issue. Are teenagers reluctant to talk? Or are we just moving past their feelings to discuss matter of factly, “what needs to be done.”

Georgia Glowaki is a senior at Mater Dei High School – a prestigious private high school in Orange County, California. She was a member of the Varsity Lacrosse team, getting ready to enjoy her last season with the team as an Adrenaline 2020 All American Athlete, and was eagerly anticipating all of the exciting days ahead as the Spring Season of her senior year began.

Even though her senior year has changed in a way that she could never have anticipated, she surprisingly stays positive through it all.

I had a chance to interview Georgia about everything she and her classmates are going through right now. She had a lot of great things to say! Although she is young, she displays wisdom beyond her years.

I hope you will listen in to this impressive young lady!
