Adopt-A-Senior
Description (Dublin Core)
When my senior year was cut short by the pandemic, the local community rallied together to “adopt” seniors. A Facebook page was created where parents of seniors would post short bios of their children and other people would “adopt” the teens and get them graduation gifts. My adoptee was a faculty member who I was close with. They gathered letters from all of my favorite teachers from grades K-12, which are pictured above. The letters were heartwarming and helped me find closure in the fact that I may never be able to properly say goodbye to the people who molded me into who I am today.
I took this photograph.
