A message for the unique Class of 2020

Andy Prest aprest@nsnews.com

Dearest members of the Class of 2020,

Congratulations, you’ve made it! And by “it,” I mean a TikTok video of your history teacher’s epic quest to figure out how to use Zoom.

When most of you started your high school careers back in 2015, the world was a very different place. Game of Thrones was a smash hit that no one could ever screw up.

Prince Harry was allied with England, and England was allied with Europe.

Mad Max was a fictional movie, not a literal depiction of a trip to the grocery store to buy toilet paper. Concerts were legal, marijuana was not. There were only 12 movies in the Avengers series. Kobe Bryant was alive, and fascism was dead.

Back in 2015, The Weeknd had a smash hit with “Can’t Feel My Face.” Now? LOL, what even is “a weekend?”

Five years ago, you would never be murdered by a hornet, and no one, and I mean no one, was encouraging you to treat a killer virus by drinking bleach.

What. The Fork. Happened.

These have been tumultuous times for all of us, particularly the last few months with the COVID-19 crisis. Among all the uncertainty and upheaval, you grads have quietly been deprived of a rite of passage that for decades most adults across North America have enjoyed at the conclusion of high school.

No prom. No big parties. No all-grad boat

You won’t soon forget the grad you didn’t get

From page 3

the past few years as you’ve shown your strength and made your voices heard.

You’ve demanded genderneutral bathrooms so all your peers feel comfortable. You’ve organized and marched in massive numbers to call for action on climate change. And just in recent days, you’ve let it be known that your generation will not stand for racism.

Your passion and compassion give me great hope for our future.

I’ll end with one more thing about this strangest of grad years: you should be very proud of the part you played in this pandemic response. I’m sure it has been hard on you, but from what I’ve seen, young people have been remarkably dedicated in following provincial health guidelines and doing whatever is needed to stop the spread of COVID-19.

And many of you have done so while also being thrust into precarious positions as essential workers at our shops and grocery stores.

You’ve followed all the health orders despite growing mounds of evidence that you were not at as much risk as other age demographics.

No one under 40 has died of COVID-19 in B.C., and no one under 20 has even been admitted to the ICU. But you still followed the health guidelines, and you did it to protect your parents and grandparents, your co-workers and all the front-line workers battling this pandemic. And we know that you will continue to do so for as long as it takes to beat this virus.

It’s inspiring, and instructive. Together here in B.C. we’ve shown what a population can do if they all unite towards a common

Gowns await their physical distancing students at the site of the north Vancouver school district’s virtual grad ceremonies in early June 2020. photo NVSD goal, a greater good. What’s more powerful than everyone sacrificing to literally save the lives of our most vulnerable?

Maybe you didn’t get a prom, but maybe you got something much more poignant. You have seen the good we can do when we all

work together.

Take that knowledge, that power with you as you go out into the world. Stay united, stay strong, bring people together to achieve great things.

The Class of 2020 is a grad year truly like no other.

Never forget that.

Congratulations to the newest cohort of graduates of the UBC Family Practice Residency Program - Coastal site! This group of talented physicians completed their training on the North Shore and we owe gratitude to their teachers: family doctors who open their offices to UBC trainees, LGH physicians and staff who take the time to teach, GPs in rural areas of the Coastal Community of Care - and to the patients, who become the best teachers of all, when they enable our UBC residents to participate in their care.

GRAD

other people who range from “best friends” to “vague acquaintances” to “mortal enemies” to “hey, didn’t that guy move to Alaska to live with his dad after setting the chem lab on fire?”

For others, grad was surely the perfect end to an enchanted sojourn through secondary school. Cap tossing, a dance with the prom king, a midnight toast, and day-after milkshakes at the local diner. Those were, The Best Days Of Our Lives!

For most people, grad ceremonies likely fell somewhere in the middle of those extremes. My “safe grad” party was held, and I am not making this up, in a barn. Small town Alberta, eh? My recollections are hazy (because of my, ahem, age), but I believe before the dance started they took the pigs out of the barn. Wanted to keep it fancy.

About the only concrete memory I have of that night is actually finally arriving back home early in the morning and peeling my fancy farm party clothes off at the back door. Who knew prom would involve so much mud?

At least, I think it was mud.

Sadly, you folks won’t get to find out where you landed on the how-cool-was-prom scale. And that sucks.

But – and of course, you knew there was a “but” coming – I would argue that we are in the perfect time with these COVID-19 restrictions slowly loosening for a truly meaningful grad celebration.

Early on in the pandemic, when our bubbles were tiny, it was just you and your household. Family is fine, right, but not all the time.

But for many people here in B.C., the province’s

strong pandemic response has helped flatten the curve and allowed you to hopefully expand your social bubble a little bit. And with that safe expansion of your little bubble, I do hope that you have been able to see those people who mean the most to you.

Tired: spending $400 to rent a limo to take you and your friends to prom.

Wired: spending $400 to rent scooters to take you and your friends to every artisanal ice cream shop in the Metro Vancouver region!

Those people in your bubble – your parents, your grandparents, your siblings, your best friends – they are all so proud of you, and are surely thrilled to be able to celebrate with you as you pass this major milestone.

Well, OK, maybe not your siblings. The bubble would be a lot more peaceful if they’d just STOP TOUCHING YOUR PHONE! But really, the people in your bubble have floated with you all of your life, and they are the ones who will watch with pride as you catch the breeze and drift off into the new adventures of adulthood over the next months and years. Sure, sometimes that bubble can get messy, drip some stinging soap in your eyes, or even pop. But as you go on in life, you will discover just how strong those links can be, even if they seem nothing more than a thin film of water. And that, my friends, is just about all I can wring out of this bubble metaphor.

You should be celebrated though! We marvel at your academic achievements, musical and stage performances, sporting prowess and so many other triumphs. We’ve watched over

In the June 10, 2020 edition of the North Shore News, we ran a feature article written by reporter Jane Seyd about the unique circumstances surrounding the graduation of the Class of 2020.

In reply, we got this wonderful letter as well as some photos from graduating Argyle Secondary student Adam Steele. We liked the letter and photos so much, we thought we’d share them with you here.

Congratulations Adam, and all the grads of the Class of 2020!

graduating classes. I also echo the optimism that one of your older interviewees had that we “will find ways to find meaning in [our] unusual graduation.” After our convocation before the cameras on May 29, I think my friends and I did just that....

Once each of us had had our walk across the stage at the Education Services Centre on Lonsdale, myself and four other friends gathered in one of our backyards for a party, similar to the Windsor grad you interviewed. Sitting in a circle on the back lawn of my friend’s Upper Lynn Valley home, we stared up at Lynn Peak and thought, “Geez, we should climb that hill some time.” Soon enough, we had it in our heads that a photo in grad regalia would be all the more memorable from the top of the mountain than at the ESC. And so we hatched a plan. After a fun and socially-distanced evening of chatting and snacking, we all went home for a couple hours of sleep before dragging ourselves out of bed again, bright and early. Being the first ones up the mountain was a heady feeling in and of itself, but as we took our gowns and caps out of our backpacks and began snapping photos, we all began to feel just how special the moment was. Sure, we had missed out on what we all expected for grad, but we all had to admit, this was a pretty cool consolation prize.

And so, just as mentioned in your article, we were able to find some meaning to our graduation. Sure, it wasn’t a gaudy downtown banquet, or an exhilarating prom and after-prom, but my friends and I found our

Grads find wild way to celebrate together

Dear Jane,

I was very impressed by the recognition you gave us 2020 grads in your article in the June 10 edition of the News. Though we’ve had to face significant disappointment this year, I agree with the West Van grad in saying that we, the Class of 2020, will hold all our memories so much closer than other

Grads are finding new ways to mark their milestone during these unique times of pandemic physical distancing. photo AdAm Steele own way to make celebrating grad work. I doubt that any grads have made a similar trip to ours – at least pre-COVID – but I think now, more kids will have been seizing on opportunities to celebrate this special moment in our histories, however they present themselves.

So, next time you’re out for a walk in the woods and come upon a group of teenagers, you might want to keep your eyes peeled for caps and gowns among the hiking boots and backpacks of the Class of 2020!

Thank you for giving newspaper coverage to us kids, as we leave school and begin to navigate our strange new world. Good community journalism is important and cannot be overlooked, and with the quality and depth of your writing, I’m sure you’re helping retain readership among our generation. Your efforts do not go unnoticed by the Class of 2020.

All the best,

Congratulations North Vancouver School District Class of 2020 Dear NVSD graduates, You made it, but there was never any doubt.

Starting in kindergarten, we saw your courage and your determination.

Everything you need to succeed in life has been with you all along.

Our hope is that we – as educators, coaches, and mentors – helped you realize your true potential.

Your remarkable resilience has been proven, especially these last few months. The grace and poise with which you have marked this important milestone is to be commended.

Know that the NVSD stands behind the Class of 2020, and that boundless opportunities are on the horizon for you.

Class trips, championship games, band concerts, clubs and school projects may be in the rear-view mirror, but high school memories live on forever.

Cherish the friendships and sage advice gifted to you along the way since the first day of school.

As you step into the next stage of your life, remember to be inquisitive, carve your own path, be courageous, and above all – show kindness.

Wherever your journey takes you next, never forget the formative memories you made in North Vancouver.

Chenchenstway – we are in this together.

Congratulations to the Class of 2020 – we salute you!

WEST VANCOUVER SCHOOLS 2020 GRADUATES Dear Class of 2020, Each one of you will remember this time as a defining moment in your lives. We know that you will come out of this uncertainty and stress with more heart and determination than ever before.

This is only a setback and it is a time for the best to show why they are the best – we have seen you support your classmates, your teachers and your community and in the end you have taught us, with your grace and grit. And you have made us proud.

You have lived and come of age in a community that cares deeply about you. You have learned and demonstrated our values of excellence, inclusiveness, accountability, authenticity, innovation, community engagement, and perhaps most importantly of all - happiness.

These are all qualities that exemplify the true spirit of public education.

This year will be bittersweet for many parents, it feels like yesterday that you were meeting your child’s kindergarten teacher and now they are at the end of their high school career. We want to thank all of our parents and guardians for your support and for being our key partners in helping our grade 12’s succeed.

Sometimes the future can come from an unexpected direction and this year has taught us that.

We are holding onto hope and promise for what is to come, and that future is all of you.
