In a remarkable effort, the class of 2017 rallied together and decided that all of them would apply to college. To their great pride, they were overwhelmingly successful.
"Stop underestimating us," new graduate Me’Ashja Hamilton told WUSA 9. "You just have to give them a chance. The opportunity to do better and you will so that a lot of students in Southeast in particular can do great things."
For the first time in the school's history, every single student that graduated Tuesday earned a college acceptance letter. From Bethune Cookman University to Penn State, the students will attend a variety of schools.
Getting an entire senior class to join together in an achievement like this isn't easy. Congratulations to the victorious Class of 2017.
