Exceptional Ed Holds Drive-In Graduation With Special Movie
Approximately 80 graduating seniors from Exceptional Education were celebrated in late June during a drive-in movie-style graduation ceremony at Erie 1 BOCES’ administrative offices in West Seneca.
The students who were honored hailed from Erie 1 BOCES’ EDGE Academy, Twilight Program, Maryvale Work Readiness Center, Learning Center and various satellite sites. The event was organized by administration and staff. Each family received a bag of popcorn to enjoy the pre-recorded video.
The video included memories, inspirational messages, cameos from local celebrities and interactive questions, which prompted the audience to honk their horns. Rob Lucas from Star 102.5 and former Buffalo Bills player Lorenzo Alexander served as keynote speakers, with a number of guest appearances.
