CELEBRATING CULTURE. Utah high school students celebrate wearing cultural, religious items at graduation,
“I think when I turned my tassel with my friends it was like, ‘We’re actually over. Our journey together is done,’” said Copper Hills High School graduate Larissa Vea.
“This is so awesome that we get to finally wear something that is part of our own culture to a ceremony that we’ve been waiting for our whole lives,” said Vea. The unanimous decision came after almost an hour of public comment and forty minutes of discussion among boardmembers. “I just want it for when my sisters graduate high school,” said Fatima Al-Saedi. “That they feel the same thing I’m feeling right now. I hope every person of color that gets to express their culture in any way gets to feel that amazing feeling.”
