Congratulations to the Class of 2024!
On Sunday, May 19th, we held the commencement ceremony for this year’s graduating seniors. It was such an honor to award them with their diplomas in celebration of them completing their K-12 education.
The welcome was given by Josilyn Hutton, the Class President. Grace Knedler was honored as valedictorian and Allyson Oser was named salutatorian. View the event's program here.
But before the formal ceremony - we celebrated the achievements of the Class of 2024 at Senior Awards Night on May 15th. Thank you to everyone who came to the event, donated money towards scholarships and supported our students! The night was truly a special one!

What is Senior Awards Night?
The Senior Awards Night is a chance for us to recognize the accomplishments of Roadrunner seniors more individually then we can at commencement. The event includes:
Department Awards
Recognizing outstanding student work within various secondary departments such as Shop, Agriculture, English, Social Studies and more.
Local Scholarships
Distributing the numerous local grants and scholarships to our students. Typically a local representative is in attendance to present the award.
Academic Recognition
Highlighting our students’ strong academic performance
Athletic Achievements
Recognizing our senior student athletes. To earn the plaque, the senior athlete must be a varsity team member at some point during their senior year
Announcing Mr. and Miss Interstate
This exclusive I-35 award tracks a wide range of criteria which is tracked all during all four years of high school.
We are incredibly blessed to have a community that supports our students so generously. Your contributions and encouragement make all the difference. Thank you for making this a memorable night for everyone involved!
