That is horrible. My son was also a senior. His friend sent an email to Shad Khan, owner of the Jaguars, and asked if we could have a graduation in the Jags stadium. We had approval within 24 hours. The school board was FURIOUS and refused to give diplomas to be handed out. Teachers and coaches were threatened not to go. At the end of the day 2 brave calculous teachers showed up to read the name of 400 students (because who's firing a calculus teacher??). The students put on the graduation themselves and their pictures all appeared on the jumbotron as their names were called. That was June 2020 when everyone in this country was locked down and masked up. God Bless Gov. DeSantis for his bravery in standing up to the world and people like Shad Khan who gifted these kids with a graduation. Sadly he offered it to every school in our area and not one other school did it.
I hear these stories and I am just so heartbroken for the kids.
