Monomoy Regional High School

Soon-to-be Monomoy graduate Hannah Thacher enjoys a contempla-tive moment during the ceremony at MRHS on June 5, the second commencement of the regional high school.

Monomoy Valedictorian Catie Barr celebrates her fellow classmates for coming together as part of the unified high school “to become the musicians, artists, athletes, intellects, activists, entrepreneurs and leaders of the next generation.” Barr was one of just four students in the entire world to answer all 100 questions on the AP Psychology exam correctly, and will be attending Harvard University this fall.

Monomoy Salutatorian Kristen Siegel addresses the Class of 2016. Siegel, of Harwich, is a talented violinist and musician, as well as a dancer with the Reaching Heart School of Ballet, who will be heading to Duke University in the fall. In honoring her class, Siegel praised them for their adaptability. “In a short time,” Siegel said. “We will be stepping off the congested highway of secondary school and onto our own individual paths towards success.”

Ready for their big moment at Monomoy are John Vagenas, Matt Po-mocka, Wivenor Celin and Alix Pierre.

Anna-Leigh Milan makes Monomoy graduation fun. in one of many touching moments during the ceremony, Miriam Massaad is presented with her diploma by younger brother Charbel.

Connor Meehan and Drew Senatore share a pre-ceremony moment with teacher Andrew Matheson.

Cassie Hall receives her Monomoy diploma with a smile from Principal Bill Burkhead.

Monomoy Regional High School

Graduating senior Jasmine Vergara-Ullman offers a beautiful rendition of “I’ll Be Seeing You” while her classmates look on. She received a standing ovation for her performance.

Some people offer a wink and a smile, while 2016 Monomoy graduate Charles Amaker offers a wave and a smile. June 5 proved momentous for Amaker in more than one way. Not only did he become a Monomoy alumnus, but also celebrated the arrival of niece Ella.

The future is calling and that’s just fine because Jade Anderson, Amanda Gayle, Kemoi Haughton and Akera Forrester are ready.
