As is typical at Maine Prairie High School’s graduation, students donned their caps and gowns Wednesday, received cheers from a crowd and picked up a bag of memorabilia to the strains of “Pomp and Circumstance.”

What was not typical was everything else: no speeches, no graduates seated in rows and — most notably — students did not walk to pick up their diplomas but rather drove.

It may not have been like your usual graduation, but this was not a usual year for Dixon Unified School District’s continuation high school.
