WAKELAND SENIORS GRADUATE
MAY 2020 - FINAL EDITION
OUR SENIORS WILL GRADUATE!
We will see the culmination of their 4 years, at Wakeland High School, as they walk across the stage in mid-field of the Toyota Stadium - in front of their peers and family...YAY!!!
Many emotions will be felt, but one that will rise above all will be that feeling of deep parental pride. We will soon see our graduates head off in different directions and different paths. But, we will forever hold a bond of being our BEST TOGETHER during a world wide pandemic to celebrate our seniors in unique and creative ways so they could feel our love for their hard work.
We can't wait to see and hear all of you cheering loud and proud on Monday morning.
We are Wakeland!
We are the Class of 2020...and so very strong!
