Alonzo and Tracy Mourning Senior High School Honors Class of 2020

NORTH MIAMI, FL — Miami-Dade County Public Schools and the Alonzo and Tracy Mourning Senior High School Biscayne Bay are honoring the Class of 2020 to coincide with the school's virtual graduation on June 8.

The school is highlighting one student below who will represent the achievements of the entire graduating class.

Jamison Herron

Jamison suffered from leukemia at a young age. That experience made a significant impact on his life. Jamison is both a fighter and a very humble person. Since he has been in remission, he has volunteered at Joe DiMaggio Children's Hospital to give back.

As a student, Jamison is passionate and responsible. He is in his school's top 11 percent and is enrolled in the law academy where he is a member of the Mock Trial Team and was also a Silver Knight nominee.

Jamison will attend Tallahassee Community College and then Florida State University.

In an effort to ensure that the Class of 2020 graduates at Miami-Dade County Public Schools (M-DCPS) receive the pomp and circumstance they deserve, the District is holding virtual graduation ceremonies for each high school. The live streaming of each virtual graduation, as well as a schedule of ceremonies and a video archive can be accessed by visiting Classof2020.dadeschools.net. The ceremonies are also televised on WLRN Channel 17.

The virtual commencement ceremonies will be followed by an in-person Class of 2020 celebration at each high school either in the summer or winter, once it is safe to do so under public health guidelines.

In addition to the virtual ceremonies, the District has launched a marketing campaign to highlight outstanding seniors, and invite the community to celebrate graduates on social media using the following hashtags: #MDCPSGrad, #Classof2020, #MeetMDCPSGrads and #SeniorSpotlight.
