Posted by Seeking Health on August 26, 2020

For many, the start of the school year is a return to routine and normalcy. This year, however, many of us are being forced to redefine our definitions of “normal”. Many schools are transitioning fully to online education, or limited classroom sizes to enforce social distancing requirements.
