ATTLEBORO - Change and inspiration are two words that best describe the 2021 graduation at Bishop Feehan High School.
The commencement was originally scheduled to be held Thursday night (June 3), but was postponed to the next day due to heavy rain. The location was then changed from the football field inside McGrath Stadium to the school’s auditorium.
The inspiration came from A.J. Quetta, who joined his 256 fellow classmates months after suffering a spinal cord injury during a Feehan hockey on January 26.
The class valedictorian, Ellis Sweeney, set the stage with a powerful address.
