Thanks to the Rona (the nickname my nurse crew has for Covid-19), graduation looked a lot different for his school this year. But, I am grateful they did what they did and it actually turned out to be a unique and enjoyable experience. It was a drive-thru ceremony. We had time periods we could sign up for to see Jeremiah receive his "diploma". We drove into the school parking lot where they had various spots for photo ops. Then, he walked up onto a stage where he grabbed the diploma and posed for a professional photo. Then, after moving his tassel, he walked by all his teachers through the lot and then got back into our car. It took maybe 20 minutes total from the time we arrived. It was actually nice not to have to sit through 400+ other students, speeches and awards. No fighting for seats or struggling to see where he was. It was pretty fantastic. I'm sad his grandparents and other loved ones couldn't be there, but they had a live stream and everyone got to watch. Overall, we were all impressed and now, we officially have a high school graduate!
Here are a variety of photos commemorating Jeremiah's graduation journey. The first set is from the photo shoot for his announcements. The second set are from the big day itself. If you can't tell, we are bursting with pride!
Congratulations, Jeremiah Lennon! Class of 2020! 🎓🎓🎓
(He really didn't want to do this pose! 😂)
