Roseville Grads Go Out In Style

It was everything a high school graduation ceremony should be.

A graduating class of around 525 marched, spoke, got their diplomas and then celebrated in style with friends and family at the Roseville Area High School commencement exercises held Friday evening in Roy Wilkins Auditorium in St. Paul.

The ceremony went off without a hitch.

The program included a presentation of the colors by the Rosetown American Legion Post 542, remarks from Principal Jenny Loeck, the presentation of the top 1 percent of the graduating class, recognition of retiring teachers, a commencement speech by senior Shahbaz Khan, remarks from District 623 Superintendent John Thein and the reading of the graduates’ names.
