Jill Harlow – Loveland, Colorado … Thirty-seven graduates marched at Campion Academy’s Commencement culminating a weekend of festivities in Loveland, Colorado, May 26. Featured at the event were speeches from class president Seth Harmon and class sponsor Dean Helm, a musical selection from students, as well as announcements of scholarships, awards, and diplomas.
The weekend began with a parent-tribute vespers on May 24 where students shared heartfelt words of appreciation for their parents. The students took the stage again for the Sabbath church service, May 26, leading the program and sharing musical features. Carlos Santana, Campion Academy chaplain, spoke on the topic of wonder. On Saturday evening, the class introduced themselves and their plans for the future by dressing up as characters from movies interacting with the audience in creative sketches.
The Class of 2024 was an involved and high-achieving group. Twenty-one students completed the requirements for the College Preparatory Diploma or the Advanced College Preparatory Diploma, with almost all of these students graduating with multiple college credits. Seventeen students graduated with honors, achieving Grade Point Averages of 3.5 or above.
The class will particularly be remembered for their musical talents and their willingness to use those talents to serve God. Twenty-two of them have been involved in music and drama most of their years at Campion and are often seen on the chapel or church stage leading praise teams with both voice and instruments. Their harmonies will be missed on campus, but we are proud to send them out to continue to uplift others.
