Hubbard graduates 166 at Stambaugh tonight

YOUNGSTOWN

“New Beginnings” was the theme of the valedictorian and salutatorian as 166 seniors graduated from Hubbard High School in a Friday evening ceremony at Stambaugh Auditorium.

“You may be viewing this as an ending, the ending of our high school careers, the ending of our childhoods, possibly the ending of our lives in Hubbard, Ohio,” said Danielle Bucci, valedictorian and class president.

“To me, this is simply a new beginning, a beginning to our futures,” Bucci said. “We’re going to make impacts on the people we surround ourselves with, the people we come into contact with, possibly even people we’ll never meet,” she added.

“Our particular journey here has been different from many of those who came before us. We have seen many changes throughout our school career, many new situations that we’ve had to learn to adapt to,” said Mark Feigert, salutatorian.

The Class of 2014 was the first to spend all four high school years in the new $20 million, state-of-the-art Hubbard High School building, which opened Sept. 1, 2010, as the first part of a new $56 million campus.
