澳门六合彩开奖接口 proudly celebrated the graduates of its seven high schools in separate ceremonies held inside the Mississippi Coliseum May 30-31, 2024. Each commencement featured addresses from the valedictorian, salutatorian as well as members of student government bodies. School principals also encouraged scholars before inviting them to cross the stage to receive their diplomas. At Wingfield High School, a somber tribute was held to retire the school's flag as the class of 2024 would be the last to graduate under the Wingfield Falcons banner. The last official day of classes at Wingfield High School was Wednesday, May 29, 2024.

In all, 1,147 graduates received diplomas over the two days of ceremonies held at the Mississippi Coliseum, and they had much to celebrate. A total of 22 scholars graduated from the 澳门六合彩开奖接口-Tougaloo Early College High School and earned Associate of Arts degrees alongside their high school diplomas. Tougaloo College offered all 22 J-TECHS graduates scholarships covering full tuition. Most of these graduates have committed to furthering their education at universities within the state of Mississippi. 

Additionally, the class of 2024 had two Gates Scholarship recipients: Jerry Palmer of Forest Hill and Camilah Cousin of Murrah. Keisa Currie-Ball of Forest Hill is a 2024 Amazon Future Engineer Scholarship recipient. Each of these students will receive up to $40,000 in paid tuition to attend the college of their choice and a paid internship offer at Amazon after their freshman year of college.
