Students gather in a school gymnasium where they receive some final instructions before starting their graduation ceremony at Bradley-Bourbonnais Community High School in Bradley, Illinois. Because of social distancing mandates instituted by the state to curtail the spread of COVID-19, last year's graduates were presented with their diplomas in an empty auditorium inside the school with no friends, family or relatives allowed to attend. This year, with the easing of restrictions, the ceremony was held on the school's football field, with a limited number of guests allowed to attend.
