The Class of 2025 graduation ceremony took place yesterday on Thyberg Field. Seniors celebrated the end of their high school journey alongside some elementary, middle and high school teachers. The ceremony marks the beginning of a new chapter in their lives as they pursue different paths.
The Class of 2025 breaks history as the largest graduating class with about 3.9 million students. According to the Higher Ed Dive, a news website about high school education, high school graduates peaked this year and will boost college attendance rates.
