LCPS's five high schools awarded diplomas to 567 seniors in four days of commencements ceremonies that were -- considering the circumstances -- remarkably similar to their graduation exercises of years past. True, the 2020 graduating classes in most cases were segmented into smaller groups, the seating was widely spaced and some of the speeches were pre-recorded; but graduates still heard inspiring words, heard their names called and walked across the stage to receive their diplomas before proud family. Unfortunately, everyone who wanted to see their favorite students attain this milestone was not able to do so because of restrictions related to coronavirus. LCPS and the high schools have worked hard to allay that disappointment by creating a virtual auditorium for commencements. Click below to enter that auditorium, where you'll find messages to graduates from the chair of the Lenoir County Board of Education and our superintendent, photos from graduations and links to the commencement videos.

Celebrate the Class of 2020!
