When I graduated from John Glenn High School with roughly 400 other kids at Eastern Michigan University, there was barely a pause after my name before the next student was announced to come get their diploma. Manchester High School graduates had no such problem Sunday. With about 100 students graduating, each student had a moment to shine.
After each student's name was called, announcers read off accomplishments of the graduate and their future plans. It was an intimate ceremony in the high school gym with the graduates surrounded by family and friends. Each graduate also went into the crowd and gave their parents a flower.
After all the hard work students put in throughout their school career, it was nice to see each one recognized for more than half a second. The ceremony showed another aspect of how special it can be to be a student in Manchester Community Schools.
