The best way to predict your future is to create it. ~Abraham Lincoln
Whether they attended in-person classes or completed their high school career in a digital format, the seniors in the Class of 2021 have been through a lot over the last 15 months. Milestone events and senior activities have looked much different than what previous classes have experienced. Yet, with resilience and future-focused optimism, our graduates have made the most of their senior year!
We hope you’ll check out this special issue of Communiqué, featuring written and spoken-word reflections, performances, photography, and visual art pieces representing each of our high schools. In the issue, you’ll meet our valedictorians and salutatorians and other high-achieving students. We’ve pulled together just a few of the scholarships and awards garnered by members of the outstanding group of students that make up GCPS’ Class of 2021. (With more than 13,000 seniors on-track for graduation, just a list of names would take more than 88 pages!) Of course, many more students earned prestigious honors and scholarships that are not part of this issue. They are being celebrated in their school communities..
Congratulations to our graduates and their families! Seniors, we wish you the very best in the future you create!
Graduation ceremonies for the district’s 24 diploma-granting high schools started on May 24 with Phoenix HS and wrap up on May 31 with Lanier HS.
