'Forever Young, Forever Proud, Forever Cardinals' at UDHS Graduation
The Class of 2013 celebrated graduation on Tuesday night at Cardinal Stadium.
The sea of smiles at Upper Dublin High School on Tuesday night was no less wide for the fact that the Class of 2013's big moment was delayed by 24 hours due to Monday's severe weather.Â
370 seniors accepted diplomas and tossed their caps in the air at the conclusion of a ceremony held in Cardinal Stadium.Â
The class heard from Senior Class President Sam Jacobson and valedictorians Colin McMorrow and Holly Christie.
