GRADUATION 2004

A school headmaster always cherishes the memories of a graduation ceremony, and I am still savoring every moment of Franklin Academy's first graduation ceremony that took place on Saturday, June 12, 2004. The weather was spectacular, the community center was filled to overflowing, and the speeches, awards, and diplomas richly recognized the personal achievements of so many of our students. Indeed, I cannot remember a better graduation during my twenty-seven years as an educator, and I am delighted that our first class of six seniors was able to choose from among a wonderful selection of college options that included the following: Barry University, College of the Atlantic, Eckerd College, Emory and Henry College, Landmark College, Lynn University, Mitchell College, Ocean Community College, Roanoke College, Southern Vermont College, and Union College.

Here are the book awards, certificates, and diplomas presented during the '04 graduation ceremony.
