Seniors Academics Achievements Information

p.2-7 p. 8-12 p. 13-16 p. 17-18 The COVID -19 pandemic has undoubtedly changed our lives as we know it. Hardships and inconveniences abound as we all work to protect ourselves and others around us. However, despite being #alonetogether, our community has done a magnificent job in helping our Senior class experience their milestone of graduation with as much pomp and circumstance as they can muster. Below and on the next pages are just some of the people and groups that helped honor the graduating class of 2020.

 Mr. Huffman, Mrs. Gaietto, Ben Smith and the Board of Education orchestrated the Senior parade, recording and showing the Senior Graduation video.  Mrs. Gast and the Lunch Ladies provided treats for Seniors.  Martina Barrett of AMIGOS Catering and Mr. & Mrs. Doug Kisseberth, drivers ed teacher, donated a nacho platter, bag of chips and a container of salsa to each of the seniors.  Jerry & Wendy Shepherd of Rawson, owners of Shepherd's Kettle Corn provided each graduate with a bag of Kettle corn.  Community members for “adopted” seniors and gave them goodies.  Daylene Boehm made quarantine class shirts available for pur- chase  The senior parents organized a "Drive Through Breakfast"

2 Thank you to Mayors and villages of Mt. Cory, Rawson and Jenera for allowing and promoting the Senior Pa- rade. It was encouraging to see the parents and com- munity members who came out to cheer on the gradu- ates and helped decorate the parade route. A special thank you to the Southwest Hancock Joint Fire District who led the parade and Bob Warren and the Allen Township Fire Department for bringing aerial trucks to hang US and CR flags over the parade in Jenera.
