PHOTOS: Bridges High School gets things rolling for Roaring Fork District graduations Friday night
Bridges High School in Carbondale graduated 28 seniors Friday night at the school, kicking off a weekend full of graduation ceremonies for high schools in the Roaring Fork School District.
The late-week snowstorm pushed Bridges and other ceremonies inside.
Glenwood Springs High School will still have its graduation outside at Stubler Memorial Field at 9 a.m. Saturday, due to space issues inside to fit everyone. The largest school in the district has a graduating class of 211.
A tent will be provided outside for the elderly and vulnerable, and attendees can view a livestream of the ceremony from inside the GSHS theater, district officials said on Friday.
Roaring Fork and Basalt high school graduations are set for 10 a.m. Saturday, both inside the school gymnasiums.
Bridges is the district’s alternative high school program for students at risk of dropping out of high school. Here are some images from the Friday celebration.
