Quenay, who was a dancer and cheerleader for the Miami Northwestern Bulls, said she couldn’t thank her mother enough for making her graduation special despite the challenges they have faced as a senior class this year.
MIAMI, Fla. – When Shaneka Woody pulled up to Miami Northwestern Senior High School last month so her daughter Quenay Woody could pick up her cap and gown pictures and Quenay burst into tears, Woody knew she had to do something to celebrate her 2020 senior.
Though COVID-19 had robbed the Class of 2020 of many of their major senior year milestones, Woody was determined Quenay’s hard work wouldn’t go without pomp and circumstance on her watch.
On Saturday, Woody, along with other parents, family and friends held an official commencement ceremony for nine graduates from Northwestern and Miami Central high schools.
In addition to Quenay, graduates included Kimani Clinch, Wilnya Jenkins, Troyana Kearney, Rudyah Riviere, Breyana Roundtree from Miami Northwestern, and Brianna Evans, Juan Henry, Chantura Kirkland form Miami Central.
