Park Christian High School Seniors turn their tassels

Moorhead, MN (WDAY TV) -- Some proud parents wiped away tears as 20 Park Christian High School seniors turned their tassels.

The gym was packed with family and friends snapping photos. There were 3 valedictorians and many scholarship recipients.

Graduates say the thing they'll miss the most -- friendships they've gained along the way.

Valedictorian Jonathan Tsen says, "I am really nervous, I'm nervous excited, there's a lot coming up in the future and our class has grown together like a family."

Loida Guajardo says, "There's only 20 of us, but it is super intimate, it's like a family, so I'll be graduating with 20 other people who are as close as brothers and sisters to me."

Get this - half of the students graduated with honors.
