Graduating seniors of Pennsbury High School were supposed to have their commencement ceremony at Falcon Field on Wednesday, June 10. Since graduation could not take place, faculty, staff and administrators at PHS, with financial support from the PHS PTO and Student Council, planned three special events for the 780 seniors.
Gift bags containing a few surprise items and special messages were hand-delivered to each senior’s home this morning. Then, from 1 to 3 p.m., a plane with a customized banner flew over the entire Pennsbury School District. At 6 p.m., a special, pre-taped broadcast aired on the Pennsbury Cable TV Channel to honor the seniors and mark the date.
Plans are still taking shape for a live commencement ceremony that administrators hope to host at Falcon Field later in July. More details will be shared at a later date.
