I have some current and former piano students who are graduating high school this year. I congratulate you all and I’m so proud of you! This has been a challenging time and these young people will be well prepared for anything that comes along. This notice came to me from the NYC Department of Education today and it seems like a fun night of music and festivities if you have time to check it out.
Dear Students and Families,
To celebrate the end of a school year like none before, please join us for a graduation celebration like none before the evening of Tuesday, June 30! We will be honoring the resilient, inspiring Class of 2020 with festivities that will be live-streamed across social media and broadcast on PIX 11 beginning at 7:00 p.m.
The event will feature the accomplishments of our graduating seniors, family messages, and congratulations from celebrities like Lin-Manuel Miranda, Kenan Thompson, Nick Kroll, Nia Long, Pitbull, Angela Yee, and more. Mayor de Blasio and the First Lady, Chancellor Carranza, and other public officials and educators will also convey their words of appreciation to the largest graduating class in the nation who will be the changemakers in our nation’s future.
We hope you all will join us for a joyful occasion to conclude a difficult year on June 30. Please save the date and learn more at https://www.nycclassof2020.com.
