OHS Graduation, June 12, 2 p.m.
||| FROM KYLE FREEMAN for ORCAS ISLAND SCHOOL DISTRICT |||
We are excited to announce the following graduation events for the Orcas Island High School Class of 2021. While we are continuing to take precautionary steps to protect our students and community and will comply with all health and safety regulations we are excited to be celebrating graduation in a more “normal” way this year.
Like many things this year our celebrations will be a “hybrid” of tradition, technology, and perhaps some new traditions. We do hope that you will join us in celebrating the accomplishments of the Class of 2021 during the next few days in whatever way you can.
Celebration of Success: June 11, 10 am
We will host our annual celebration of the graduating class and the awarding of local scholarships. We will live stream this event for the entire community (both near and far) to join us. All links will also be posted on our websites. www.youtube.com/
