We are happy to announce that our baccalaureate and graduation plans allow for the Class of 2021 to celebrate both events together as a class with two guests present.
We are proud of our senior class for persevering through this unprecedented year. They have demonstrated resilience while stepping up as leaders and excelling academically which has prepared them for the next step in their journeys.
We also understand that there will be a variety of opinions regarding these plans, and we ask you to encourage your children finish this school year with strength and positivity. Additionally, we are aware of Governor DeWine’s announcement this week and have been informed by the Diocese of Columbus that they will be studying his announcement about the health orders before making any changes to the strategies that have worked so well to keep our students in school during this entire school year. And so, we will stay the course with both the date of graduation and the health protocols. We feel it is in the best interest of the seniors and families who have made summer vacation and work plans to finish the school year as scheduled.
We are grateful for the ability to provide an opportunity for the entire class to be together for graduation and we believe the seniors will be happy with this decision as well. As we all breathe a sigh of relief about one graduation ceremony and the fact that we have been able to be in session the entire school year, we’d like to ask you to keep in mind and say a prayer for last year’s seniors, the Class of 2020, who did not have this opportunity.
Thank you for your patience and understanding while we have worked out details.
