My Nephews and Nieces are going to graduate this year.
Since Covid-19 pandemic arise to the whole world, all classes are suspended and cancelled.
Parents and Students are doubts and asking of what happen next?
No graduations happened and online classes declared.
Sad to hear all the changes nowadays.
The excitement feeling of a student to graduate, who achieve his/her goal of success is disappoint.
No one would be blame this circumstances, everybody are affected.
Anyway, the show must go on.....
To all who achieve their goal of success who did not experience graduation ceremony or commencement exercise, all I can say is Congratulation Graduates.
How about you, does anybody you hear happy who finish the school this year without the Graduation Ceremony or commencement exercise happened of the School?

@Tampa_girl7, Yes, that is true, sad to hear that their efforts for a long years doesn't have any happiness of their end year of study. Only the time of graduation day they will feel the success of their study. The complete happiness of the student is on the Graduation day. Now this is totally happened. Student that are going to graduate this year are disappointed. Thank you Ma'am Marie for sharing us here your thought. Have a nice day to you.

My son also graduated just this July. He was supposed to graduate this March but the lockdown has postponed it. They were anticipating that it will be over by May but it wasn’t. So they move it further to July and decided ro have the ceremony online. They were the first batch to graduate like this. 
. Kind of awkward to witness it like that but at least there were ceremonies and acknowledgment of honors amongst the batch.

I think this is very disappointing to grade without a graduation ceremoney but there is no better way at present. Here the kindergarten, primary school and high schools are all open except for the university. I guess this is because the universities accept anyone from all over China or even overseas. And some places still have lockdown or it is risky.

@vilma143 We also had the online courses from February to May. Actually I even bought a new printer so that it would be much more convenient. Fortunately my son is a high school student and he could do many things. Otherwise it would drive me crazy

Due to pandemic all activities in school are affected but we have a good choice than nothing at all. We are having online schooling now and it will getting smoothly. But some are not having online due to lack of budget for the wi-fi expense and also to the gadget needed in schooling and they are waiting until the normal situation is back. Hopefully, everything will be okey soon. Thank you for sharing us about your place. Have a nice day too, friend.
