As traditional classrooms became inaccessible, Equality Charter School(ECS) swiftly transitioned to virtual learning. Recognizing the significance of the upcoming school year, we acknowledged the importance of fostering togetherness and maintaining a positive spirit to ensure the thriving of students, families, faculty, and the entire community.

In response, we introduced a new cast of characters that would set the stage for back-to-school remote learning. Simultaneously, the annual appeal postcard was launched, shedding light on the funding required for essential equipment and materials to support Equality’s scholars in their successful transition to remote education.

For the 2020-21 annual portfolio, our challenge was to effectively convey and showcase the positive aspects of adapting to the pandemic. Drawing inspiration from the success of our punctuation cover concept, design system and template for the 2019-20 annual portfolio, our creative response for 2020-21 took the form of the ampersand. Paired with the words ‘Courage’ and ‘Creativity,’ it not only symbolizes togetherness and inclusion but also serves as a testament to how Equality Charter School adeptly navigated the school year. This title is a tribute to the scholars, faculty, and staff for their successful adaptation to the challenges brought about by the pandemic.
