More than 70 Seniors Graduate During Summer Commencement
Local school district honors the summer graduates of 2023
Fayetteville, NC -- Cumberland County Schools (CCS) provides equitable access to engaging learning that prepares every student confident, competitive and ready for a career, college and life. This morning, the district celebrated more than 70 successful students as they received their diplomas during CCS' 2023 Summer Graduation Ceremony.
Faculty, staff and students from 11 high schools across the district and their guests gathered in the auditorium at Jack Britt High School for this momentous occasion. Together, they acknowledged the hard work and perseverance of this year's summer graduates. Students smiled as they lined up to receive their diplomas.
Sergeant Major Chris Miller delivered the commencement address. He posed the question to students, "Who do you want to become?" and encouraged them to surround themselves with people to help them get there. "Circumstances don't define you, they shape you," said Miller.
Special moments from the ceremony included the presentation of the colors by the Jack Britt High School Army JROTC Color Guard and a solo performance by Javaria Cox.
