The Graduating Class of 2020

Dear Class of 2020,

We know this was not the way you imagined your final year of high school would end. There were academic and sport championships missed, proms missed, goodbyes said that you would have never have dreamt to be final ones. Senior pranks, finals and laughs that will never be had in the halls of your now alma mater. We will not pretend to know how you feel, how your parents feel or even how your teachers feel. You’ve learned an incredibly tough lesson at a fairly young age: life is hard and it isn’t always fair. While this pandemic has stolen a lot of memories, laughter and tears, it cannot steal your faith, strength or perseverance. We pray the education you received during your time at St. Pius and St. Michael’s will provide a strong foundation for your future selves. Know you will continue to be in our prayers, and we are forever grateful to have had the opportunity to watch you grow.

We’d like to leave you with this poem by Shel Silverstein:

“Listen to the mustn’ts, child. Listen to the don’ts. Listen to the shouldn’ts, the impossibles, the won’ts. Listen to the never haves, then listen close to me... Anything can happen, child. Anything can be.”

God bless you, Class of 2020... you’ve got this!

People of God
