On Friday, June 9, 2017, the senior class of 2017 graduated in two packed ceremonies at Christ Church Cranbrook.
Built by George and Ellen Booth as an original part of the Cranbrook community, the church traditionally remains the site of all graduation ceremonies despite Cranbrook’s lack of religious affiliation. Although the Cranbrook high school is co-educational, it is also customary to graduate boys and girls in separate ceremonies; a convention that survives from the days when students were educated separately.
This year, the senior class was collectively admitted to 263 college and universities, where they will take the knowledge and experiences they’ve gained at Cranbrook and apply them to their next great adventures. Please see the list below.
Congratulations, class of 2017! Aim high and go forth to serve!
