The Class of 2021 at Neshaminy High School in Middletown Township tossed their caps into the air Tuesday evening with thousands of their friends and family watching.
Valedictorian Henry Casper urged his 614 classmates to not dwell on the past, but focus their efforts and thoughts on the future. He said being open to exploration and trying new things will increase the probability they will find fulfillment and success after high school.

“Our lives have only just begun, and we have already experienced so much. The world awaits,” Casper exclaimed.
Class of 2021 President Matt Drapkin told his peers that they all had empty canvasses when they came to Neshaminy High School four years ago.
“We all became artists, sketching ‘Skins stories in red and blue. Really take a second to soak it all in. This is a once-in-a-lifetime type of moment,” he said.

“Though your graduation marks the end of your high school experience, it’s the beginning of a much longer and much more important journey. Continue your journey, pursue your goals, pursue your dreams, and pursue your passions, and along the way, use your talent to make the world a better place for yourself and others,” Superintendent Dr. Rob McGee told the graduates.
