AUDIENCE ADDRESS

Welcome to the first-ever Virtual Commencement Ceremony for Barstow
High School. Even in these unprecedented times, we ask our guests to
treat this ceremony with the respect and dignity that our graduates
deserve. BHS staff wishes to acknowledge the hard work and dedication
our graduates have put forth over the course of the last four years. We
also wish to honor their recent resilience as a host of precious traditions
have been stripped from them. We hope this virtual ceremony affords
them the opportunity to nonetheless celebrate their accomplishments.
