graduation

Commencement exercises for the 97th Basic Peace Officer Course class at Angelina College were held June 16.

Nacogdoches High School seniors were awarded their scholarships and the top ten and Who’s Who students were recognized during the NHS Award Ceremony on Tuesday, May 24.

This must be a misprint.  I just saw a high school graduation invitation with my daughter’s name and pictures all over it. Didn’t she just lose her first baby tooth last week?

Lufkin High School graduates are practicing this morning at Abe Martin Stadium, and there are a few rules the students have to abide by.

Has it already been a year?  Yup, ready or not, it's graduation time. Now, you can shout out your graduate's name as he or she walks across the stage (which is usually frowned upon), or you can congratulate your graduate on the Merrell in the Morning Show.

Kindergarten graduation - a time for smiles, proud parents and grandparents, numerous photo ops, and....how about a fight nothing short of a riot?

This four-year-old is not only entertaining, but extremely smart.  I mean, how can you go wrong in a graduation speech, or song in this case, by quoting the Bible and George Strait.

Although he was run over by a car at 14-months-old and paralyzed from the waist down, Patrick Ivison didn’t let his disability stop him. In fact, the California native learned how to kayak, ski, play rugby and even surf. And now he has one more amazing feat to add to his accomplishments after managing to walk during his high school graduation on Tuesday.

Is it wrong to cheer for your child at their graduation?  Well, it landed this mom in jail last weekend!

I still remember my high school graduation like it was yesterday... Actually, that's a lie.  The only things I really remember from 1982 are that I was skinnier and had more hair. But enough about me, we want to feature your graduates on our KICKS 105 graduation gallery.

As heard this today on the Merrell in the Morning show, it's time to show your college pride!  It's GenTX Day!  And a special thanks to our friends from Hudson Middle School who shed some more light on what that means for East Texas.  GenTX Day celebrates all students and their journey toward higher education.  Congratulate this year's seniors as they get ready for college and careers.

Teen truancy is a real problem for a lot of schools, but especially so for the Dohn Community High School in Cincinnati. It only has a 14% graduation rate and has been deemed an “academic emergency” by the state of Ohio. So the school is trying out a novel approach: it’s paying students to show up and behave themselves.
