More than 250-yard signs featuring the faces of Burlington High School’s 2020 graduates lined the lawn outside the school Thursday, May 21, stretching for over a quarter of a mile.
School staff, board members, and volunteers stood behind the signs for three hours, waving and congratulating the seniors as they circled the school. The students will be able to take the signs home later this evening.
That’s just the beginning of the celebrations planned for BHS’s seniors. A virtual graduation commencement will air at 3 p.m. May 31, and another graduation celebration is being tentatively scheduled for July.
