Graduation will be held Friday night (May 24) at 7pm for Coffee County High School seniors. A crowd estimated of over 5,000 will watch graduates accept their diplomas behind Raider Academy in Manchester at Carden-Jerrell Field.
Around 400 seniors will take their next step toward a future full of expectations as they will hear from fellow classmates; Valedictorian George Gannon and Salutatorian Isabel Watkins.
Many of the grads will take a break from school for a short period before heading off to college, and others will jump right into the workforce or military.
The 2019-2020 school year begins in just a little more than two months.
