presented diplomas to 230 students on Tuesday morning in the high school's gymnasium. 

The ceremony started with prelude music and the "Pomp and Circumstance" processional performed by the Tuscarora High School band.  Senior class members of the Tuscarora Choral Program then sang the National Anthem.

There were several speakers including Pamela Paul-Jacobs, principal, and Ned Waterhouse, Deputy Superintendent of Schools.  The Senior Address was given by James Cassar. The Commencement address was given by Rick "Doc" Walker, a former tight-end for the Washington Redskins.
