On Friday, 193 students became the 102nd class to graduate from Anacortes High School. An additional nine students received diplomas but did not attend the ceremony.

AHS Principal Pam Estvold told the gathered crowd that 94 percent of the graduates intend to further their education at a four-year or two-year school or a technical program. Three plan to join the military.

“Congratulations Class of 2008. We are very proud of you,” Estvold said.
