I'm concerned that I can't find any full-length video of the 2016 graduation commencement on the internet, including YouTube. Is it (the video) being edited? ALL other local school's have posted. To be honest, I'm disappointed. I live out of state & was hoping to watch my daughter (lLllith S McFarland) graduate.
