Southfield (CW50) - When the state of Michigan went into a Stay-at-Home order, students were sent home with hopes of returning soon. The students didn't get the opportunity to return as the school year is now over and high school seniors missed out on many activities that close out every high schooler's career. They missed out on Prom, Graduation, and other rites of passage.

With some school's plans to open in the fall are still up in the air, seniors going to college had to make the decision and even attend orientations all from home during the pandemic.
