Two graduation ceremonies were held Saturday for the class.
Riley Metheney, senior speaker, said the story of the the class of 2021 is based on a quote by author Sarah Adams, I m an equal of the world not because not because of the cars I drive, the size of the TV I own, the weight I can bench press or the calculus equations I can solve. I am equal to all I need because of the kindness in my heart.
Everyone they meet they have an impact on in one way or another an although each class member has had a different experience at GCHA their kindness and generosity have connected them throughout their high school careers.
