When powell county high school reached out to jon skidmore.

The owner of 606 productions about filming graduation.he wanted to do something more to tell the story of their senior year.

The result is a 45 minute long documentary telling the story of how difficult the experience has been on the class of 2020...and how hard staff worked to help them.

Jon skidmore: we just started hitting that button and we filmed everything from how they ended up doing honors night, to the support a senior, which they called sos, so every friday seniors would pull in they would give them certain gifts like things from prom that theyre not going to get like prom glasses and their tassels for graduation and then also the biggest thing that shocked me is the food delievery and how they handled that.

Skidmore says his favorite part of the documentary is hard work and innovation that went in to making it a positive, special senior year, despite the headaches... jon skidmore: the people that put their heart and soul into this process to make sure these kids are took care of in these uncertain times.

Its just truly amazing.
