FR&A Photo Gallery: Central Jersey College Prep Graduates 8th Graders

---

In the second of two days of “drive-by” graduation ceremonies, the Central Jersey College Prep 8th Grade class formally became high schoolers on June 23.

Sitting in their parents’ cars – many of which were decorated – the students heard several speeches, including one by class Valedictorian Kristin McNally, then celebrated with car horns as they heard their classmates’ names read off.

With teachers gathered by the school’s entrance, the cars formed a caravan and drove slowly past them as the students got one last chance to say good-bye for the summer.
