Congratulations Class of 2008!

Most of them were born in 1990, the same year that South Africa’s Nelson Mandela was released from prison, Iraq invaded Kuwait, the Hubble space telescope launched and the Worldwide Web was invented. So, it’s no surprise that this year’s graduating class is comprised of doers--many of them already making names for themselves with community service projects, science research feats, published mathematical inferences and there’s even a pageant winner and a few sports’ heroes. Our list of graduates can be found on the following page. 
At Commencement Exercises, Math Department Chair Dr. Richard Palmaccio and French teacher Cheryl Doolittle received Honorary Alumni Diplomas; math teacher Gordon Ivanoski received the Richard Palmaccio Award and science teacher Cheryl Doolittle received the DiCapua Family Award. We're going to miss all of our 173 graduates, which include 23 National Merit Finalists and 44 Cum Laude Inductees this year. You go Class of 2008!
