The community around a Nova Scotia high school left grieving after the province's horrific mass shooting is putting together a graduation event allowing students to celebrate without risking the spread of COVID-19. Last week, Nova Scotia Chief Medical Officer of Health Dr. Robert Strang announced a special easing of public health restrictions for graduation ceremonies, clearing the way for Lorraine's plan. As with most graduation ceremonies, graduates will arrive, take their places, and wait for their names to be called, alphabetically. Garrett said the drive-in ceremony is important, because it will be the only opportunity for graduates to share their accomplishments with friends and classmates. "The fact that we're still all here together for this graduation ceremony is really an inspiring thing," Boudreau said.
