Masked Graduate
I chose to use this photo because I feel as though it really reflects what the past few months have led up to for me. My graduation was something I had been looking forward to all of highschool, since I struggled my first two years to get credits and I’ve worked extremely hard to get to this point of finally earning my diploma. The cap and gown mixed with the mask shows that even with setbacks, being represented by the mask, you can find success, as represented through the cap, gown, and tassel. I spent the past few months worrying that I would never get this ceremony, and validation that I have succeeded, however I have learned throughout this pandemic that I do not need the fancy ceremony, or validation to know that I have succeeded. I am strong, and I am able to fight whatever comes my way. -

Desolation
A school graduation is supposed to be unforgettable - people from all over coming together to celebrate a moment that most students cherish for the rest of their lives. Now with the pandemic, we are forced to graduate within the comforts of our home, yet we feel more disconnected than ever. This picture represents the great memories we made in high school, the great experiences we lost, and the great friends and family that surround and propel us in life. To the class of 2020, these are not easy times, but we will get through them. With your leadership and spirit, the world will be stronger than ever. The object is a photograph, and I took this picture at my high school. -

The end of May is usually a time for graduating seniors to enjoy the end of school and celebrate with friends and family, whether in college or high school. With the coronavirus sending all students home for distance learning months before their graduations, celebrations have had to adapt as well. Krispy Kreme is trying to help with the celebrations. At locations across the country, all graduating seniors who are able to show some of their class swag are entitled to a free dozen donuts. -
