A school board in North Carolina has voted to host an in-person graduation ceremony for all its high schools, a decision that would be in conflict with Gov. Roy Cooper’s restriction on public gatherings.
In a 5-4 vote, the Union County Schools Board of Education approved on Thursday a proposal to hold the graduation ceremony in an outdoor stadium, reported CBS affiliate WBTV. Graduating seniors from all 11 high schools and a limited number of family members would celebrate together, while maintaining social distancing rules.
