This year Beaumont High will celebrate with approximately 550 seniors, who are completing the Beaumont Unified School District’s graduation requirements. Beaumont Cougars are the pride of Beaumont and wearing their blue and white caps and gowns they will no doubt be the focus of town’s admiration.

“The long tradition of support from the entire Beaumont community, from both the newcomers and the lifelong residents, is what makes Beaumont special,” said Christina Pierce,

“As the new school principal, I am excited to join the Beaumont family and community and lead this wonderful and memorable ceremony,” said Pierce, continued. “Our graduates have worked hard to meet all Beaumont Unified School District graduation requirements. We are very proud and honored to join them in this celebration!”

“On behalf of the Board of Trustees and the entire District, we congratulate the Beaumont High School Class of 2015! This is a momentous time in their lives and I wish them tremendous success,” said Dr. Maureen Latham, Superintendent of School for Beaumont

“If I could spend time with each one of them, I would tell them that learning is a lifelong endeavor and their education at Beaumont High School has prepared them to pursue interests and goals that will fulfill them as adults. I would convey how excited I am for their future and know the community, state, and nation are well served by their talent, expertise and leadership,” continued Latham.
