TULSA — Leaders at Union High School have decided to switch to a virtual graduation ceremony for the Class of 2020.
“While we had maintained hope that we would be able to have a traditional graduation ceremony, that is no longer going to be possible,” said Superintendent Dr. Kirt Hartzler.
More than 1,000 seniors are eligible to participate in the virtual program June 15th at 7:30.
“I know this will be a major disappointment for our seniors and families. However, we do not think hosting a large event – even in July – is the responsible thing to do.”
Hartzler said the virtual graduation will have many of the same features as the in-person graduation, including speeches from the valedictorian and salutatorian.
