With DPSCD high schools preparing for their graduation ceremonies starting next week and continuing through much of June, the District hails our students in the Class of 2022. Despite all the challenges you faced during your four years of high school (with the pandemic and online learning being at the top of the list), you earned your graduation through steadfast determination as well as perseverance. Congratulations on Your Rise! 

Now that you have been loved, challenged, and prepared during your time at DPSCD, it’s time to move onto new beginnings. For some of you, that may mean attending college. For others, that could mean joining the military or moving into a career.  As part of our series of stories on DPSCD’s graduation 2022, we invite you to meet DPSCD’s Salutatorians for this school year (2022).
