Class of 2013 Graduates from Braintree High School

Familiarity was torn from the Class of 2013 throughout its four years at Braintree High School, Student Council President Rachel Norton said during graduation ceremonies Saturday afternoon.

The class lost some familiar faces, like Headmaster David Swanton, to retirement. Others, like teacher Mike Piazza and Tony King, passed away too soon.

Despite this, the class stuck together, Rachel said. Students went to parties together, cheered on championship teams together, and Wamp Nation will persist.

"It has been an incredible ride and this is only the beginning," Rachel said.
