State Farm Good Neighbor – 2020 Graduates
Entering the world on the heels of September 11th in some ways it may seem only fitting that the class of 2020 end their high school career in the middle of a Pandemic. One of the most joyous times in a young persons life is in many ways being over shadowed. I think back to the banquets, all nighters studying for finals, picking out my last prom dress, my last time out on the field, signing my senior banner, the tears in my mother’s eyes as I handed her a rose at graduation, and my heart breaks for every single young person that is not making those same memories this year.
I then think about what opportunity each of them have before them. These young people are uniquely positioned to be the greatest generation our world has ever seen. All you have to do is reach out and take it. You all have the special opportunity to be the generation born of true GRIT! You will all have to pull yourselves up out of pretty incredibly unique circumstances and create something new. People are doing it all over the world. Create this change and be wonderful!
We could not be more proud of each and every graduate throughout all of Elko County, but we would like to give some special recognition to a few names that are dear to us within our Shabonya Dutton State Farm Family. These Graduates are special to us and we wish you nothing but the very best in your future endeavors.
