Horry County High School Seniors Start Petitions for Graduation

Horry County seniors have expressed frustration over the announcement of virtual graduations. Most students maintain a “pre-recorded video posted online” simply isn’t enough after being robbed of their senior year experience. They are also upset over the fact that the parents and students were not consulted prior to the decision. The seniors have said they’ll adhere to any and all rules, including wearing masks, standing 6 feet apart, or even participating in small, drive-thru ceremonies. However, they are demanding it happen in person. Therefore, several petitions were created. The goal is 2,500 signatures and some of them so far have over 1,800.
