Congratulations to all of the Coal Ridge Class of 2020 Graduates!
Another high school graduation is upon us and it’s pretty safe to say that this is one we will all remember for the rest of our lives. One day, the children will be discussing the year 2020 in their history classes. It’s been a wild ride for these Seniors and I can only wish them all the best on their new journeys.
Hayley is a Coal Ridge High School Senior who has already received her diploma. She didn’t get to attend a formal graduation ceremony with all of her peers, family and friends. Instead, she walked quietly alone across a stage receiving school admin handshakes and her parents in the background secretly shedding tears. She turned to the empty gymnasium, flipped her tassel and smiled into the video camera. Hayley will officially graduate this Sunday, May 17th at 1:00pm via a video that will be streamed to the public through the Coal Ridge Facebook page.
Miss Hayley expressed to me that the hardest part of the past few quarantine months has been not being able to hang and talk with her friends at school every day. She has really missed the social interaction more than anything. She’s kept busy at home with online distance learning and baking. She loves to bake! Hayley is looking forward to the fall when she will attend CSU for Music Education, another love she is very passionate about.
Good luck to you, Hayley!! I wish you all the best in your new journey after all the craziness!
xoxo,
Carrie
