Many schools have been working hard to create memorable graduations in a year where what they have always done just don't work. They have reinvented the traditional ceremonial send-off.
Notre Dame, and others in our area, created a photo shoot, where each student was photographed and/or videotaped crossing the stage. Certainly the photos are better than anything we would have captured in a large ceremony, but Ashley still missed seeing her friends and teachers. We look forward to the July 18th on-field graduation ceremony (or as I call, Graduation Part 3).
As I learn about other places, I will add them to this list for posterity.
Millville High School had a parade through town, ending with a lap on the racetrack.
In New Hampshire, and other places, graduation took place on a ski lift. This became the first time classmates saw each other in person since the virus shut down their school.
Some schools created giant posters of their graduates. I saw these images on FaceBook, but now can't find one to share.
If you hear of other creative solutions, please share in the comments.
