It didn't seem right to high school officials for seniors not to have a graduation. So their commencement was like no other: a valedictorian's speech blasting from a 56-foot drive-in screen, graduates in cars, and a retractable arm to give out diplomas.

Within a day, they drove up to visit, fell in love with the place and started negotiating a contract with the owner and hammering out logistics. The school would bring security guards and a custodian to wipe the bathrooms. The venue agreed to a full refund if the state were to change regulations again and make the gathering illegal. And the school insisted it all be kept top secret, for fear that other schools might steal the idea, and the site.
"Oh, my God! That's awesome!" Decina squealed, and immediately declared the plan even more fun than a regular graduation. Kids are already planning to decorate their cars. They are limited to one per family, and if they have a sunroof they can pop through to cheer and toss their caps.Graduation Ceremony Postponed, Dream Internship Cut Short: 'I Have No Direction'
