NEENAH, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – The Neenah community honored its Class of 2020 with a processional through the city.
Wednesday’s parade gave the community the chance to congratulate the 480 seniors who are unable to have a traditional graduation ceremony due to COVID-19.
The parents and guardians of the graduates drove students along the route, as people lined the streets.
Some even decorated their vehicles.
Neenah police assisted with traffic control.
Senior, Anthony Van Samvek, tells FOX 11 it’s really exciting to see everyone one last time in a special way.
“I think it’s really cool, especially how later on in life I’m going to be able to tell my kids and my friends about how we had this really cool event and about how I got to go out in one last shot in a different time.”
Neenah did hold an online graduation ceremony.
