A Very Dark Graduation


Friday June 1, was Hershey Christian School's first high school graduation. They graduated 8 seniors. It was a momentous occasion for the school. However, it was probably like no other graduation. About 10 minutes before the ceremony began, a strong storm knocked out power to the area and the entire ceremony was done in the dark. I commend our headmaster for sticking it out, but there's just a little less magic in a room where you can barely see anybody. I kind of felt bad for the people that put so much hard work and planning with the assumption that there would be electricity readily available. There was no slideshow, video address, microphones, speakers, video recordings, air conditioning, etc. In any event, the kids still got their diplomas and will be able to look back on it and say that they got to graduate in the dark, I guess.
