The Keynote Speaker was City of Chester Mayor Wendell Butler. He gave students encouragement to continue on to their next graduation in 4 years. With a “Yes I can” at some point in his speech, a very attentive graduating class actually repeated the words “Yes I can” with confidence. After the Keynote Speech, a very spirited graduating class accepted their diplomas.
