Under normal circumstances tonight would have been the DHS graduation ceremony for the Class of 2020. While we have postponed the ceremony until July, we can't help but think about our senior class today. With our seniors on our minds, we will be sharing out two slideshows later tonight. One slideshow will publicly announce the winners of scholarships from the Du Quoin Educational Foundation while the other will feature the seniors pictures of the Class of 2020.
While we know these slideshows do not replace in person events or ceremonies, we hope they provide a few moments of appreciation, reflection, and enjoyment.
The slideshows will be shared on the Du Quoin CUSD 300 Facebook page, on our district website, and will also be shown on the local access channel through NewWave (channel 16).
Special thanks to Jennifer Caldwell for putting the slideshow together of the senior pics and to high school yearbook sponsor Rebekah Dunavan for sharing the pics.
We continue to look forward to honoring the Class of 2020 later in the summer, but we aren't done here in the month of May. You can still record a special message for a graduate (or 8th grader as well) to be played on WDQN next Friday night. A lot of messages have already come in, so if you'd like to join in, call Stephanie Waller at 357-6397, check out the Sunny 97.1 Facebook page, or e-mail wdqnrog@gmail.com. The deadline to participate is next Wednesday!
Everyone stay safe,
