![Shifting locations during COVID-19, the Palo Alto High School Wellness Center has quickly adapted to new spaces — both physical and virtual. Wellness Outreach Officer Whitney Aquino said that although the Wellness Center staff is unable to check on students in the same way they normally would, they are offering resources to ensure that students feel supported. "[Previously] they're taking a break in class and then you can say, 'Do you want to talk to someone?' and they might end up opening up ... versus when we're online, folks can just take a break in their own homes," she said. "We've seen perhaps fewer people dropping in, but we've also seen more people who are able to access resources by coming in on their own or filling out the form."

![Junior Nisha Mata uses resources from her post high school planning folder, which she received at Palo Alto High School’s College and Career Center Orientation. After her orientation, Mata met with a Paly college advisor to discuss post-Paly plans, and Mata said the meeting provided her with helpful information and advice. “Before the meeting, I knew roughly what I had to do, but I didn't know how to follow through with it or actually do it,” Mata said. “She [Mata’s advisor] went over the specific steps of what I should start doing and how I should start preparing. … I definitely think I would go back if I have questions.”](https://palyvoice.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Nisha-Mata-CCC-Folder-900x504.png)
![In a virtual interview with The Paly Voice, Palo Alto Unified School District Superintendent Don Austin said he wants time to adapt his 2021-2222 plans and build distance/in-person learning schedules that accommodate both students and teachers. "There's no reason for [students] to register for classes right now," he said. Austin also predicted a decrease in standardized testing nationwide due to newfound Democratic control.
