Patch Honors Huntersville Graduates: Congrats, Class Of 2020

HUNTERSVILLE, NC — Patch wants to provide a way to share the achievements of our high school graduates, even if it's in a small way. With in-person instruction canceled through the end of the academic school year due to the coronavirus in North Carolina public schools, seniors are missing out on the last moments of what should be a celebratory time.

We know many high school seniors are missing milestone high school events, and we hope that this will give the community a way to share their pride in our class of 2020 high school graduates.

Here are the class of 2020 high school graduates our readers wanted to recognize:
