Franklin High School decided it would be best to hold a virtual graduation given the difficulty of social distancing and the state's mandated no crowds over 250 for and event in the Green Phase.
​The school has 139 graduates.
"Doing it this way each graduate can bring as many people as they want," said Franklin's principal Christina Cohlhepp about the revised and modified graduation.

She said something cool and unexpected came out of this plan. Everyone in the family could be right up front in the auditorium to see their loved on get their diploma. They also built in time for photos with the graduate on the stage.
​This has led to some added fun like the class salutatorian Alisa Lipinski's grandma giving her bunny ears and making faces for the photos(above.)

The graduates each scheduled time in advance to receive their diplomas over three days last week. The individual ceremonies were then spliced together into an entire graduation ceremony and the video appears on the districts website and shared through the districts social media platforms. Cohlhepp said she wanted to be sure it was up in a timely manner.
"Even if I have to stay up all night it will be done by Sunday." she said. 
Cohlhepp said she hoped it be as close to the actual graduation as it can given the circumstances. She said the video should follow a similar format to the real thing.
​
​The first day of taping was a long one lasting over 10 hours, but Cohlhepp said she had so much fun. "At the end of the day my cheeks hurt from smiling," she said.
