A sad time to say goodbye to traditions

 At my high school, there were many senior traditions. The one that was everyone's favorite, that every single person looked forward to doing, was signing your name on the tower your last day of senior year. Unfortunately, my class' last day was spent over zoom. We received an email from the school saying that the event would be cancelled and would hopefully be rescheduled. One of the parents sat out a box of chalk, that had enough for each student in our class to use and keep their stick of chalk, on the front stairs of the school. Another tradition we missed, was walking out of the front doors after signing the tower. Every person in my class came (at different times so it was safe for everyone) and signed their names on the front stairs. It wasn't what we were supposed to get, and it's not fair that we had to end such an important time this way. But we made the most of the situation and still were able to hold on to some piece of tradition.
