Another school year has come and gone and we have to say goodbye to an amazing group of scholars! 🥲 🎓 On Wednesday, we held our annual graduation luncheon! Unfortunately, due to weather threats, Bevill's graduation ceremony was postponed, however we still were able to enjoy some quality time and a sweet goodbye with these two special ladies!

Congrats to Noelle Hogue and Brittan Sandlin on your graduation and earning your Associate's Degree from Bevill State! Noelle is transferring to Mississippi State for Culinology, and Brittan is transferring to University of Alabama for Public Relations.

This has been a fantastic group! Be on the lookout for more graduation photos and senior scholarship recipients! 🎉
