Covid-19 Graduation

I don’t like the fact that the class of 2020 has to deal with this tragic pandemic, but I know that we can, and will get through this. For some places like Arizona, and California where it was really bad, everything has been closed, and seniors there are not able to have a graduation. Lucky for some, like the class of 2020 in Westcliffe, Colorado we are a small community and everyone knows everyone, so there is a bunch of people willing to put in the work, and time to make the class of 2020’s graduation memorable. The community I live in is amazing there are so many people stepping up to help, and everyone is pitching in, it’s really sweet. Even though graduation won’t be the same, and I will have to miss out on traditions, like senior prank day, and prom, ex. I am ecstatic that I am still able to have an actual graduation. My last event with all of my classmates before we all go our separate ways. As much as it wont be the same, and we wont have it in a big gymnasium, like past years, I know the community will come together to make sure it is special for all of us, as we take our next big steps into the world, and find ourselves. I am very grateful to have lived in a small community, and appreciate everyone that has put forth there time and energy, to make sure the class of 2020, still knows that they are loved, even during a rough time.
