Craftsbury Academy, Hardwick's Hazen Union, and Twinfield Union School held graduation ceremonies in mid-June, celebrating the achievements of the Class of 2026.

Craftsbury Academy's valedictorian was Cedar Greiner, daughter of Azsa and Bradley Greiner of Craftsbury, who will attend SUNY Canton to major in veterinary technology. Salutatorian Owen McKibben, son of Raphaele and Glen McKibben of Wolcott, plans to study biology at Hamilton College in Clinton, N.Y. Sarah Shaw, who taught Spanish at the academy from 2023 to 2025, delivered the guest address.

Hazen Union School's graduation featured the select chorus performing and a ceremonial toss of mortarboards by the graduating class. Among the graduates were twins Brianna and Zachary Holbrook, who were congratulated by their great-grandmother Elaine Silver of Greensboro Bend. Graduate Ethan Gann also addressed the gathering.

At Twinfield Union, Wyatt Bickford received his diploma from Counselor Melissa Gosselin as Stephanie Ainsley read his accomplishments.
