In an evening commencement ceremony, the Class of 2021 graduated from Holy Name of School.
After receiving their diplomas and turning their tassels from right to left, the 8th graders' character and academic achievements were honored with subject awards from their middle school teachers, NY state certificates, and memorial awards from HNOM benefactors.
Middle school teachers gave out Individual Subject Awards to honor the 8th grader who excelled in their class. This year, the award not only included a pin, but either a book or card with a handwritten note from their teacher!
Father Regan and Mrs. Sanders distributed the Memorial Awards from HNOM Benefactors.
William Yee, the Class of 2021's Valedictorian, delivers his speech.
Johancy Pluviose, the Class of 2021's Salutatorian, welcomes everyone to the commencement ceremony!
