We've all been blessed with the opportunity to walk across that stage in our caps and gowns to receive that high school diploma... but it will likely look different for the class of 2020.xxx we're going to be extending the distant learning throughout the rest of the year that was the statement heard and felt by students?

Parent?

Teacher?

And administrators around the north star state.

Students won't be returning to the hallways for the remainder of the academic year.

So what does this mean for the class of 2020's commencement ceremonies?

We will do everything in our power to have some type of graduation where we can honor them and recognize them.

Rochester public schools superintenden t michael muno?

Has continued to encourage students throughout distance learning?

But his newest challenge is keeping seniors motivated to finish the school year strong.

That's why he says it's so important to make sure there is some sort of ceremony.

We're going to try to some kind of way to honor our seniors sometime around, probably the same time graduation would normally occur but no final date has been determined or what we're going to do, but we are going to do something so i woudn't say it's going to be cancelled.

Munoz says schools are still arranging for students to pick up their caps and gowns sometime in early may.

Thank you kaleb.
