The Academy of Mount St. Ursula celebrated their long-standing senior tradition Friday.
However, this year, the all-girls Catholic school is doing the event a little different because of the coronavirus.
The celebration was held in the school’s auditorium, unlike previous years where seniors skated down East 199th Street to roll in a new chapter of their lives.
Seniors say getting their school rings and pins is something they’ll remember for years to come.
News 12’s Carmen Grant details more from the event and what the seniors are looking forward to.
