Class of 2015 Begins a New Journey
After a long year, the Class of 2015 attended graduation at Cedar Park Center on June 5. More than 600 members filled the arena, and thousands of parents, siblings, relatives, and friends watched as their seniors crossed the stage.
Valedictorian Jessica Yu ’15 gave a speech commending the Class of 2015 for their efforts, while Principal Laurelyn Arterbury shared her memories of the vultures and this year’s senior prank, in which she was followed by a mime during graduation practice.
At the end of the ceremony, students moved their graduation tassels from the right to left, signifying the change from seniors to graduates.
Congratulations, graduates, and good luck on your journey!
