Seniors at Jefferson Davis County High School and Prentiss Christian School were scheduled to graduate May 15.

Due to the coronavirus, those graduations have been rescheduled.

Jefferson Davis County High School will hold graduation June 19. Plans are for the graduation to be held at 7:30 p.m., but that might change due to CDC recommendations at the time.

Prentiss Christian School will hold graduation ceremonies June 11 at 8 p.m. at N. O. Tyrone Memorial Field.

It is unclear if the public will be able to attend both graduations, but up-to-date information will be provided in future publications of The Headlight.

JDCHS did hold a balloon ceremony May 15 on the football field.

Speeches were given by the valedictorian and salutatorian before a balloon was released for each graduate. The event was videoed live on Facebook.

“We wanted the seniors to know that we were thinking of them,” said JDCHS Principal Carrie Hammond-Walker.

“We didn’t want the day to go by unnoticed.”

Senior awards day at Prentiss Christian School will be held June 10 at 9 am. in the J.E. Baxter Memorial Gymnasium.
