Out with the Old for LHS Graduation

For the first time since 1973, Liberal High School’s Graduation moved outdoors. The ceremony was Saturday morning at Redskin Field for the class of 2011. A near capacity crowd greeted the class. Valedictorian Tirana Gill says receiving that honor made dreams come true. "Becoming valedictorian was not a specific goal of mine, but ever since I got into high school I definitely always looked up to the valedictorians and thought it would really be cool to become one of them."

Gill plans on attending UMKC. The salutatorian Kelly Francis will attend Smith College in Massachusetts.
