A perfect day, a perfect ceremony: Graduation 2016
June 17, 2016
On Saturday June 11, 2016, friends, family, and loved ones gathered outside to celebrate the graduation of the class of 2016. Directed by Dave Umstead, the Concert Band performed “Pomp and Circumstance,” along with several other pieces, including a John Williams medley of ET, Harry Potter, and Star Wars. The ceremony began with a welcoming address from Principal Barnes, followed by a speech from Senior Class President, Catherine Cotton. Brandon Fox, Salutatorian, and Class Valedictorian Caroline Daigle also spoke, both giving memorable addresses. Before the eager graduates received their diplomas, Superintendent Andrew Corey delivered a speech to the class and to the crowd. A beautiful day, just shy of a rainstorm, the 2016 Graduation Ceremony was unforgettable.
