Featured Story: Unexpected Gifts, Unforgettable Journeys: Honoring Our MoCI and MiCI Graduates
Posted on 12/30/2023
We celebrated 4 graduates from our MoCI and MiCI Special Education programs from the Class of 2025 at Lake Shore High School.
Teachers Mr. Carney and Mrs. Fain shared heartfelt congratulations as each graduate was honored for their achievements. The ceremony featured the classic Pomp and Circumstance processional, moving performances by the Women’s Chamber Choir, and memorable speeches from staff and students. A special slideshow by Carsyn Allen captured the highlights and favorite memories of the year.
Superintendent Dr. DiPonio shared, "I am inspired by everything that you do. You are everything that is good about public education." He went on to list several P2 character strengths and explained that these students, both graduates and Senior leaders, are everything we need in the world. "Sometimes the most incredible gifts come in the most surprising forms — you are that gift to Lake Shore."
Principal Dr. Bross officially performed the tassel ceremony, declaring these students are graduates of Lake Shore High School, symbolized by the moving of the tassel from right to left.
Our students looked stunning in their graduation regalia as they celebrated this unforgettable day with staff, friends, and family in the Lake Shore High School auditorium. This ceremony is a powerful reminder of the strength and potential within every student.
