Pine River-Backus School Board discussed a return to a traditional PR-B High School graduation during the May 17, 2021, regular meeting.Travis Grimler / Echo Journal
Following a recent decision by Gov. Tim Walz, the Friday, June 4 Pine River-Backus High School graduation ceremony will likely be almost back to normal.
High School Principal Chris Halverson said organizers were mulling over holding another drive-thru ceremony much like 2020 when the governor s announcement came through removing most COVID-19 remediation efforts and opening the door for an indoor ceremony. That offered the opportunity to hold a more traditional ceremony indoors in the Performance Gym with a large audience.
