Joy and congratulations were in the air last week as the L’Anse High School class of 2023 wove their way through the streets of downtown L’Anse to the cheers of family, friends, and community members who lined the sidewalks during the Senior Parade. The graduating class of 56 students then gathered in the L’Anse Area School (LAS) gymnasium to receive their diplomas before a packed audience. The evening was warm and beautiful on Thursday, June 1 as the LAS gym bleachers filled up with guests and the class of 2023 lined up by the gym doors waiting for the ceremony to begin at 7 p.m. LHS band members and
Director Aaron Poniatowski started the program with James D. Ployhar’s “Fanfare &
Processional,” announcing the senior’s entrance. To read more, subscribe to the L’Anse Sentinel online, or buy a print copy at our local retailers.
