Riverwood Graduates Come to HPES

The following students attended High Point and are now graduating from Riverwood International High School. We will give everyone a 5 minute warning before we begin walking the students down the hallways. We encourage you to talk to your students about what it means to be a graduate and get them excited to be in these students' shoes some day! Please ask your students to clap and cheer for them when they come to you!!!
