COLUMBUS, Ind. — Bartholomew Consolidated School Corp. has announced plans to hold in-person, outdoor graduation ceremonies for its three high schools, which have more than 800 graduating seniors between them.
Superintendent Jim Roberts announced some of the details at Monday’s board meeting, and the school corporation later posted an announcement on both its website and social media.
As a result of moving the festivities outside, the ceremonies have been rescheduled to provide rain dates and times, if needed. All three graduations will be livestreamed on BCSC’s YouTube channel.
