Triton Regional High School Class of 2013 Graduation Photos

Hundreds of family, friends and students gathered at Triton’s football stadium to watch the class of 2013 receive their diplomas. The boys in blue and girls in red were paraded past a packed audience that not only filled the stands on both sides of the field, but lined the fences and crowded the walk ways.

Adversity and overcoming it were major themes replayed in commencement speeches and remarks given by students, faculty and administrators during the ceremony. After a year marked by “scandal,” for the graduating class, the seniors closed out their year with all of the pomp and circumstance one would expect of any graduation and maybe a little more.

The ceremony was light hearted and fun. Enough so that the use of cell phones was allowed just once as valedictorian Kathryn Hogan said to her fellow graduates, “Take out your cell phones and take one last high school selfy.”
