Howe High School celebrated the graduation of the Class of 2026 Sunday evening, May 10 during a commencement ceremony filled with reflection, gratitude, faith, and hope for the future.
Family members, friends, faculty, staff, and community supporters gathered to honor the graduates as they officially completed their high school journey and prepared to begin a new chapter.
Throughout the evening, student speakers reflected on the memories, lessons, and relationships that shaped their class over the years.
Historian Karsyn Burgess reminded classmates that “our story doesn’t end here — it’s only just beginning,” as she reflected on childhood memories, lifelong friendships, and the teachers and mentors who guided the class along the way.
Salutatorian Elizabeth Psalm Yandell encouraged graduates to move forward with courage and faith, sharing, “There will be moments when we don’t have all the answers… but in those moments, we can choose to trust — to believe there is purpose in every step.” She reminded her classmates that “because of God and because of the people who raised us, guided us, and reminded us who we are… we are prepared, we are supported, and we are never walking alone.”
Valedictorian Reece Harrison challenged the Class of 2026 to place character above accomplishments, telling fellow graduates, “Success is not just about reaching the top — it’s about the person you are when you get there.” He also encouraged classmates to “choose courage when fear is easier, choose integrity when shortcuts appear, and choose kindness again and again.”
As the ceremony concluded with the traditional cap toss, the Howe High School Class of 2026 celebrated one final moment together before stepping into the future.
Congratulations, graduates! Your Howe Lion Family is proud of you.
