Tyler Ward who is a honor roll graduate at Brandon High School in Brandon Mississippi was disappointed that he could not have his graduation ceremony at a public venue since the Coronavirus pandemic closed down all of the schools around the nation. However Tyler's parents April Jones and Travin Jones decided to have a drive by special ceremony for their son who plans to attend Millsaps College this fall on an academic scholarship by having well wishers come by their home to congratulate Tyler for his great school work. Having a drive by ceremony made Tyler happy since he has learned that despite his dream of having a graduation ceremony in a public venue was cancelled, having close friends and family come to bear gifts and well wishes was just as good.

@eileenleyva Tyler is an honor student that was denied by the pandemic to have his graduation ceremony in a public venue. A drive by parade eased his disappointment.

I'm sure it made him feel on top of the world with that drive-by celebration.
