Is this divisive jock/preppy/nerd/skater/gangsta shit still going on 23 years after I left high school? I thought y'all zoomers were better than that.
hello, I'm a 2020 hs graduate, I'm probably in the zoomer category. from my experience, this does not exist outside of movies.
fun /s
I mean, as a nerd with no interest in prom, it wasn't all bad. My hs has us still do graduation almost as normal (masks and spacing, ofc), with the only major difference being that it was split across multiple days so we could fit everyone on the front lawn.
The fact that they had to do the speeches six times was the only reason I was slightly glad to have missed out on being valedictorian/salutorian
pretty boring tbh. most of it was the same, just with masks on, and classes online. thankfully, mu part of australia was mostly unaffected by covid, so final WACE exams were basically the same. the big send off was already done before hand
