School for Advanced Studies Honors Class of 2020

KENDALL, FL — Miami-Dade County Public Schools and the School for Advanced Studies 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 represents the achievements of the entire graduating class.

Ariana Rejas

Ariana Rejas is a Silver Knight Nominee in Music and Dance, thanks in part to her project called "Limitless Love”, which helps undocumented families in Miami through musical performances. Ariana is also a recipient of Univision's Orgullo de Nuestra Comunidad award. She will be attending the University of Miami on a full scholarship.

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.
