A proposed event celebrating Burlington’s graduating seniors has been rescheduled, it was announced Wednesday.
"Night Under the Stars" was rescheduled for June 1, with a raindate of June 4, according to a social media post by Burlington High School Principal Mark Sullivan.
In the post, Sullivan said the event was rescheduled after a meeting with student council.
On Tuesday it was announced the event, which was being promoted as a night of “music, playing games and taking pictures,” would not be going forward, leading to frustrated complaints on social media.
On Tuesday afternoon, Sullivan issued a statement that permission for the event had not been secured due to concerns from the state Department of Public Health, the state Department of Elementary and Secondary Education and the Burlington Board of Health.
