Cooperstown Central School returned to its grand graduation ceremony Sunday, June 27, as 84 seniors graduated on the lawn of the Fenimore Art Museum in the town of Otsego.
New Superintendent Sarah Spross told the students that Cooperstown's future is in good hands with this year's class. She said the students have learned key skills during the coronavirus pandemic that limited their activities during their final two years of high school. She said if the students can take from the experience the skills of resiliency, service and a sense of humor, then they will go on to live good lives.
As is the tradition, the school's top four students gave a combined speech. For the class of 2021, Brayden White, Caroline Whitaker, Abby Miller and Will Weldon compared grade school to popular movies, "Good Will Hunting," "The Lion King," "The Breakfast Club" and "Forrest Gump."
