“I’m happy with the end of the year. I’m excited we got back to some normalcy under Plan A,” West Henderson High School Principal Luke Manuel said. “We’re glad to see our students.”
Middle and high school students in the county returned to full-time, in-person learning under the state’s Plan A option in March.
Other recently relaxed Covid-19 restrictions in North Carolina also mean schools will hold graduation ceremonies in the county on May 28 that will look similar to past graduations with seniors receiving their diplomas outdoors, except for Hendersonville High School, which holds its graduation in the gym. Last year, high school graduation was a drive-through event with families watching from cars as graduates received diplomas one at a time.
