The Luverne High School Class of 2020 wrapped up the school year with a virtual commencement and spectacular community parade Sunday afternoon. After a long spring of missed events and landmark senior moments, the parade — with fire truck escorts and enthusiastic community support — was a welcome opportunity to celebrate with a little human interaction. The parade — about 100 units long — started and ended in the school parking lot and wound through all the neighborhoods of Luverne. Students and parents later remarked that they were impressed by the strong show of community support. Nearly every block along the route had people cheering, clapping, waving “congratulations” signs and honking horns.
