Pearl River High School Celebrates Graduation Tonight

Pearl River High School's graduation ceremony will begin 6 p.m. tonight, outside if the weather permits.

Pearl River High School will honor the Class of 2012 at the school's 106th graduation ceremony starting at 6 p.m. Thursday.

Heavy rains forced the ceremony inside last year. This year the weather may make things uncomfortable with temperatures expected to reach the upper 90s, but they are expected to remain outdoors.

Pearl River High School Principal William Furdon will make the opening remarks. Senior class Valedictorian Jack Mikuszewski and Salutatorian Samuel Berry will also speak.
