H-LP seniors begin next chapter

Graduates clad in blue and white robes crossed the stage Sunday in the Harris-Lake Park gymnasium. H-LP's class of 2023 included 20 seniors, who were met with applause, hugs and smiles after receiving their diplomas and officially turning the tassel on their mortar boards. Students, staff and the general public heard from not only school administrators but the graduates themselves and Lake Park Mayor Matt Carstensen.

Following the ceremony, the now-alumni formed a receiving line in the high school commons, where their friends, families, classmates and teachers congratulated them on their achievements. (Photos by Dave Petrick)
