DEMING HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION TOMORROW05/17/2012 (Deming) -- Just shy of three-hundred Deming High School seniors will graduate Friday in commencement ceremonies at Memorial Football Stadium. The class valedictorian is Matteo D'Andrea. The student-selected commencement speaker is Roy Juarez, Junior -- an inspirational speaker who presented his story to Deming students three years ago and who was invited back for graduation. Juarez was once a homeless teenager who went on to graduate from Hardin-Simmons University and is presently on a 300-city tour to inspire youth to dream and understand the value of higher education. This year's class flower is New Mexico's state flower -- the yucca -- in honor of New Mexico's statehood centennial this year. The class motto is "Together we have experienced life; separately we will pursue our dreams and forever our memories will remain." Commencement begins at 7:30 p-m with the traditional senior walk around the track. Seating is first-come, first-seated, with no reserved seating. Parking is available around the campus, and Deming Police Department officers will be directing traffic. No alcoholic beverages or weapons will be allowed into the football stadium. All guests are subject to search. Congratulations to Comments Comments are closed. |
