Following their evening at the annual Grad Night celebration sponsored by Boulder City Sunrise Rotary, the graduates posed for a photo in front of the state championship sign on the outskirts of town.

The soon-to-be graduates enter Bruce Eaton Field to the cheers of family and friends.

Prior to the ceremony, the seniors gathered in the school’s theater to talk and get photos, including Callie Fagan, Audrey Humes and Gavin Gross, who posed for a quick selfie.

Murphy Shea and Charlie Gaviak, from the BCHS class of 2038, shared some words of wisdom and advice for the seniors.

Following the ceremony, the packed stadium of family, friends and schoolmates joined the graduates on the field to congratulate them.
