The School system will be down for the rest of the year starting today. A source says that provincial exams are still on and grading will be done from where instruction was discontinued, so no one will lose the year. This fulfills the essential service that school and other public works are under. One hundred and nine young people Graduated From Merritt Secondary School on Friday. The ceremony was held at the Nicola Valley Memorial Arena and a parade from the high school was headed by Mounties in their Scarlet dress uniforms.
