Hello Class of 2020! Governor Tony Evers here.
Congratulations! I am thrilled to share in this special occasion with all of you.
I know this year was a challenge. Many of you tackled your last few months of school from home, missing critical time with your friends, classmates, teammates, and teachers.
And while this semester is ending on a very different note than any of us could have predicted, that does not change the exceptionalism of this accomplishment.
You all worked hard for years to reach this point and I want you to know that we are proud of you and we celebrate you.
So on behalf of the state of Wisconsin, I wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors and congratulations, Class of 2020!
