In the last year, our nation has rightfully celebrated the accomplishments of frontline workers—those medical professionals who have worked tirelessly to take care of patients and those struggling with virus-related symptoms. But there are other groups of individuals who have fought through much adversity in the last year. We could write a whole blog post acknowledging each one of them, but today we’re going to make a timely shoutout to 2021’s graduating seniors from high school. Why focus on them in May? Because at Fun Services Midwest, we know for a FACT that May is graduation party season. After reading this post, we hope you have a greater understanding of 1) how we can make your graduation infinitely better with an inflatable bounce house rental (fun high adventure inflatable) (among other inflatable options) and 2) why this specific group of teenagers is worth celebrating.
Keep reading to find out which high school adventure options are perfect for your party at hand. These teenagers have fought through so many obstacles in the last year plus, so give them a fun obstacle for a change.
As far as we’re concerned, celebrating teenagers with (an inflatable) a bounce rental is where it starts—fun for the whole family is where it ends. So beginning with the end in mind, let’s take a look at WHO we’re celebrating in the days ahead.
A Class Like No Other
In May of 2020, the world celebrated a special class of high school seniors—a graduating class that entered their second semester of school expecting to finish classes and round out extracurricular activities once and for all. But then the unexpected happened. A global pandemic put a halt to any plans they had, and a new wave of uncertainty swept over each school in America and beyond.
As the world learned to communicate through virtual means and flexible schedules, one of the bright spots was how everyone celebrated those who fought so hard to deliver as “normal” an experience as possible. Think about all the teachers and school administrators who worked tirelessly to get their students and seniors across the finish line.
The result was a plethora of virtual celebrations—many of which garnered attention on a national stage and brought smiles to millions of faces. But for all the screentime tassel-turning, we know something big was missing: graduation festivities in real life.
A Gift on Every Table, and a Bounce House Rental in Every Yard
At least that’s what we’re saying in May/June of 2021. Why? Because this graduating class of 2021 endured said pandemic for the entirety of their senior year! Sure, some of the world is opening back up thanks to the prevalence of vaccination, but the reality stands—this group had to make some serious sacrifices this past school year. It’s time to throw them a party they deserve.
It is NOT too late to show them how proud you are of their accomplishments. Here are a few next steps to send these seniors out with a bang.
- Already have a senior graduation planned? That’s great! Let’s make it even better.
- Don’t have one planned yet? Get it on the books ASAP. These seniors are worth celebrating.
- Whether you’re a student or a parent, think about any graduating seniors you know personally. Share the link to this blog post and we’ll help them get started.
- “A gift on every table” is obviously the norm when it comes to graduation parties, but “A bounce house rental in every yard” should serve as tradition when it comes to grand festivities.
The following contains a few of our personal recommendations and some appropriate next steps. Again, if you think planning a party for a night or two seems like a difficult task, just think about nine months of high school in the middle of a global pandemic—these students deserve to be recognized!
