Dr. Larry Massie, interim superintendent, said the following in regard to graduation in a May 6 announcement, “There will be a traditional, in-person graduation held for James River High School and Lord Botetourt High School just as soon as the Governor of Virginia will allow large gatherings of people. It is not possible to determine the date of the traditional exercises at this time, but be assured that they will take place as soon as possible.”
