The first ceremony took place Friday morning at the Raleigh Convention Center, where Enloe Magnet High School students graduated.
550 students make up the graduating class, including Malone Bridgers, Enloe's SGA president, basketball captain, and a key contributor to the school's charity ball, which has raised over $750,000 for local nonprofits over the past four years.
Bridgers delivered a special address to his senior class during the ceremony. In his message, he emphasized the importance of cherishing life's small, magical moments.
"My message is to appreciate the little moments, the little magical moments that can easily pass you by but truly shape our lives and make life so special-the things that are easy to miss," he said. "But they're magical. They're beautiful."
