Class of 2020: “Lemons to Lemonade”

Dear Class of 2020:

Waiting for college decisions is a notoriously stressful time but none more so than in 2020 while in the midst of a pandemic, online school, canceled proms, and graduations, etc.  However, despite it all, we have watched you persevere and, yes, thrive with the dignity and grace that is usually reserved for those who are older and who have experienced life’s obstacles one by one vs. many at once.
