Leaving for spring break, many people did not realize that March 6th would be their last time living at [[McConnell Hall]]. On March 12th, 2020, all UNT/TAMS students received word that in-person class from March 16-22 was cancelled as classes transitioned to an online environment. Students were encouraged to stay off-campus. Soon after, students were notified that all classes would remain online for the remainder of the semester, and TAMS students were told to move out of McConnell for the rest of the semester.

Even though COVID-19 restricted the ability to hold TAMS events, [[clubs]] and [[Staff]] held events virtually over Zoom. On March 23rd, 2020, TAMS experienced its first-ever virtual [[Seminar]] during which Staff went over plans on moving out of McConnell and answered questions from students/parents. Soon following this event, TAMS held its first virtual event of 2020, [[TEDxYouth @ TAMS]] which was broadcasted live on Facebook to all three Classes of [[:Category:Class of 2020|2020]], [[:Category:Class of 2021|2021]], and [[:Category:Class of 2022|2022]] (incoming students). Overall, this event received high praise from many people including [[Eric L. Gruver|Dr. Gruver]]. Other club virtual events included [[hackTAMS]] and [[Worldfest]].

While the cutting of the rose could not occur, Staff still held [[Rosecutting]] and announced student life awards. Unfortunately, graduation plans were completely cancelled and no substitute, besides a graduation video, was created.
