Published June 9, 2021 By DAN TOMASELLO LYNNFIELD — In the aftermath of an incredibly challenging and daunting senior year, the Lynnfield High School Class of 2021 was able to celebrate its impressive accomplishments during commencement exercises on Friday, June 4.

Similar to prior years, the 171 graduates sat on the field of Pioneer Stadium together for one last time. The stands and sidelines were full of proud family members, friends and town officials, who frequently cheered the graduates during the hour-long ceremony.
