After last year’s classes of 2020 experienced their high school graduations in ways no one could have imagined because of the pandemic, public school districts in Sheboygan County have much more conventional ideas in mind this time around.
Last week, the Sheboygan Area School District announced a return to the traditional in-person ceremony on Saturday, June 5th at Vollrath Park, with a rain date of Sunday the 6th. Due to the ongoing threat of COVID-19, two ceremonies will be held; South High at 11 AM and North High at 2 PM. An indoor option was not considered for safety reasons, and attendees are being asked to mask up, use social distancing, and show up no more than an hour ahead of time.

Tyson Settles Anti-trust Case For $221.5M
A filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission reveals Tyson Foods has agreed to pay $221.5M in a settlement in the broiler chicken antitrust civil price-fixing lawsuit against the company. The settlement will be reflected in the company’s first-quarter financial statement.
According to a Farm Journal report, the agreement allows Tyson to exit the price-fixing lawsuits filed against it and other poultry companies filed by customers and consumers. The settlement comes after Pilgrim’s Pride Corp., Greeley, Colo., agreed to pay $75M in a settlement on Jan. 11. JBS USA is the majority shareholder of Pilgrim’s Pride.
