Congratulations, Class of 2024!
Congratulations to the Class of 2024! All your hard work has paid off, and you are now officially high school graduates. We are so proud of you.
The Class of 2024 recently crossed the stage, marking their accomplishment of becoming high school graduates earning their high school diploma or GED. Salem-Keizer Public Schools had more than 2,700 students celebrate this important milestone surrounded by their families, educators, friends and community members who supported them along their path to graduation.
The Remarkable Class of 2024
The Class of 2024 is a graduating class that proved to be nothing short of remarkable. This class is one where each student’s high school experience was heavily impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Their freshman year began in online learning, challenging them to build routines, meet friends, connect with teachers and more in a whole new way. These challenges did not stand in the way of incredible success by our Class of 2024 graduates.
As students round out the school year, let’s take a moment to reflect on some of the key points of pride to recognize the graduating Class of 2024.
