Salutatorian Nathan Engar followed with a tribute to the teachers and parents before Valedictorian Jared Saccomanno concluded with a speech about how “Dinos Don’t Stop!” Former CHS principal and coach Bruce Bean was welcomed to the podium next as the commencement’s keynote speaker.
CHS principal Jarad Hardy then presented the Class of 2023 and began awarding diplomas with the help of Carbon High’s administration, Carbon School District’s (CSD) administration and the CSD Board of Education.
The graduating Dinos rose in unison to transfer their tassels to the left. The night ended in celebration with caps flying through the air from the Class of 2023.
