ConVal High School Graduation
Under a cloudless sky, 148 seniors graduated from ConVal Regional High School on Saturday, June 13.

The Commencement Exercises combined thoughtful reflections with entertaining moments, starting with a Jimi Hendrix-worthy performance of the National Anthem by Jordan Sweet.

Principal Heather McKillop gave the Welcome Speech, followed by the Valedictorian and Salutatorian Addresses by Hadley Bates and Zadie Marshall. Alyssa Hamlin was the Student Speaker.

After the ConVal Select Choir's rendition of "So Let Us Create," Tyler Mudrick presented the ConVal Faculty and Staff Award. The award is given annually at commencement to that senior who, in the collective opinion of the ConVal faculty and staff, best represents — in practice and intent — spirit, unselfishness, service, leadership, and accomplishment. This year's winner was Alida Brissette.

Art teacher Ben Putnam gave the Message to Seniors before the graduation pins and diplomas were conferred by Superintendent Dr. Ann Forrest and Principal McKillop. Brayden Boice gave the Farewell Address.

The ConVal graduation was livestreamed for remote audiences and is available to view online by clicking here.

Congratulations, graduates of the ConVal Class of 2026, and best of luck on your next chapters in life!

Senior Scholarship Night Provides Student Support
Senior Scholarship Night was a moving testament to the tremendous community support that the nine district towns provide to ConVal High School graduates. Based on eligibility criteria such as merit, career plans, or town of residence, over $185,000 in financial aid was provided to students by 36 local businesses, civic organizations, and private donors.

The single largest scholarship fund contributor last night was ConVal Community Dollars for Scholars, a Peterborough-based non-profit organization which had raised more than $76,000 for the event. The Dollars for Scholars program awards individual scholarships ranging from $5,000 to $15,000 and, importantly, pairs recipients with mentors.

Congratulations to the 45 scholarship recipients who will be able to apply their scholarships towards trade certifications and tools, college tuition and course fees, books, equipment, supplies, and other expenses. For a complete list of scholarship recipients, please see here.
