On Thursday, May 22, the students, teachers and families of Veritas Preparatory School gathered in the chapel to celebrate the graduation of the Class of 2025. While several of the five graduates had only joined the school in recent years, others were saying goodbye to a place they had called home since kindergarten. The ceremony marked the close of their middle school journey and the exciting beginning of their high school years.
Headmaster Jill Rosario addressed the graduates with warm words of encouragement, speaking about each student and the unique strengths they brought to the school community. Each graduate also gave a personal speech, expressing gratitude to the parents, teachers and classmates who had supported them along the way. They shared a “Top Ten” list, highlighting their favorite memories from their years at Veritas.
The ceremony included a benediction offered by the father of graduate Jonathan Oranebo. He encouraged the students to continually seek after God and strive to walk in His ways. As parting gifts, each student received the Bible they had used during their time at Veritas, along with a special box set of The Lord of the Rings, a series that held special significance during their years at the school.
The celebration concluded with the traditional 8th Grade Walk. Attendees lined the sidewalk outside the chapel, cheering and applauding as the graduates made their final walk as Veritas middle schoolers.
Congratulations to the 8th grade graduates—John Dunkin, Orianna Hubbard, Sonora McInturff, Nate Nuckolls and Jonathan Oranebo—of Veritas Preparatory School, Class of 2025! May God bless you in your future endeavors.
