FALL RIVER:<\/strong> It may not have been the way they all had envisioned it, but the graduating students of Lockview High made the most of dressing up for their “prom.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While there would be no actual prom due to public health restrictions as a result of COVID19, that didn’t stop many students from donning their tuxedos and dresses and heading in for pictures at Halifax’s Public Gardens on June 25.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The students made the best of the situation and made use of the tuxes and dresses they had already purchased before COVID19 had even been a thought, and before schools were shuttered and eventually proms and traditional graduations tweaked to follow the guidelines. Many were seen with ear-to-ear smiles as the day allowed them to forget if for a little the way the year concluded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The weather was perfect for the day, allowing many to capture memorable moments of their senior year under a hot summer June sun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lockview High had a community celebration for the graduates planned for later today, June 29 at Scotia Speedworld. Look for further coverage on this on our website this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
