Let’s be honest, every graduation season is a special one. And 2019 was no exception. Students crossing the graduation stage and into a new life journey. Parents tearing up and cheering them on. Educators wearing smiles throughout. It all makes for an emotional couple of hours celebrating years of hard work and achievement. Charter public schools throughout the state were there to capture it all, sharing the wonderful and tender moments on social media.
