Petition for Columbus City Schools to Postpone Graduation Instead of Cancelling Them.


Petition for Columbus City Schools to Postpone Graduation Instead of Cancelling Them.
The Issue
This petition is for Columbus City Schools District to refrain from cancelling the senior commencement ceremonies. Graduations should be postponed to a later date or altered for safety, not cancelled. Seniors have been in school for 12+ years and deserve more than a “virtual graduation”. The students feel as if the district is not properly evaluating all of the options such as social distancing on football fields, drive-in ceremonies, and/or rescheduling for a later date. Students feel belittled and uncared about. Sign this petition to advocate for a in-person graduation.
