MARYSVILLE — Hundreds of seniors are set to graduate from Marysville schools this year, but have missed some of the quintessential high school moments.
In an attempt to make up for that, a group of parents planned a city-wide parade Friday night. City officials and the Marysville School District were not involved.
Graduates were invited to decorate their cars and have a chauffeur tote them around the city, past all four high schools: Marysville Pilchuck, Marysville Getchell, Legacy and Heritage.
Residents were encouraged to cheer on the kids from afar, while keeping space between one another to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
“Wish them good luck in their futures,” organizer and parent Jennifer Schmidt said. “Because the first 13 years is tough, and it only gets better.”
