Unvaccinated students at Granada Hills Charter High School will have to watch their classmates walk across the stage from afar after the school prohibited them from attending the graduation ceremony.
"I felt abandoned by the school I worked so hard for," said senior Andrew Luna."It's just heartbreaking." After working hard and getting through remote learning during the height of the pandemic, 18-year-old Luna thought he would be able to enjoy the rest of his senior year back at Granada Hills Charter High School. However, after winter break, he was notified that he wouldn't be allowed to come back if he wasn't vaccinated against COVID.
"Besides that, it was just the events on school campus, relationships with friends and just a lot I had to give up, essentially," Luna said. "Right before graduation, he's being told that he can't graduate on stage," said Luna's father Tom."That's not right.""Andrew is willing to be tested, there's no reason he can't get tested and then go into school just to graduate," he said."They told us it was because of an uptick in COVID cases that this mandate occurred. But we know that's not the case because they planned this last year.
