INCREDIBLE ACHIEVEMENTS FOR OUR CLASS OF 2024

Here’s to our 2024 grads!

The Center for Discovery’s 2024 graduation ceremony was a heartwarming and joyful celebration of our amazing students’ achievements. It was a day filled with laughter, (happy) tears, and plenty of applause as we honored the hard work and dedication of our graduates.

Families, friends, and staff all came together to celebrate this special milestone, sharing inspiring speeches, a photo montage through the years, and several heartfelt moments. One incredible moment was when one of our 2024 graduates, Aevary, sang a beautiful rendition of “Somewhere Over the Rainbow!”

In a commencement address co-written by President and CEO, Dr. Theresa Hamlin, and Executive Chief of Education Services, Kerri Muzuruk, shared that they are “incredibly proud of each of you for all you have accomplished during your years in our pediatric program at The Center. The pediatric program has prepared you for the journey ahead—finding your place in the adult world beyond the supportive boundaries of The Center and its staff.”

They urged graduates to “take a moment to embrace and celebrate all that you have achieved. We have young farmers who have cultivated and harvested their first crops; actors and actresses who have performed in school plays and community theater activities, musicians who have learned to play instruments and performed at events; and, athletes who have competed in various sporting events. These are amazing accomplishments!”

Our graduates have shown incredible perseverance and growth, overcoming many challenges to get to this day. The ceremony was a beautiful reminder of the supportive and nurturing community at The Center for Discovery, where everyone is always encouraged to reach their full potential.

Congratulations to all our wonderful graduates!
