This year we will mark 5 years since the graduation of the first class of the USAP Community School! The Class of 2021 joined the school at it's opening in January 2020 and were integral to building the community culture at the school, and now we get to celebrate them as they graduate university!✨️

We are very proud of the journeys they have all taken over the last four years as they continue to create impact all over the world.

We would like to take some time over the next few weeks to acknowledge members of the USAP Class of 2021 who have just graduated from their undergraduate programs.

Congratulations to all who will be graduating college/university with the Class of 2026! 👏👏🥳
