TENNERTON — As dusk descended on the Freal ‘Red’ Crites Memorial Stadium Friday, the Buckhannon-Upshur High School Class of 2024 was officially ready to face the so-called real world, and they seemed excited to do so.

B-UHS’s 137th Annual Commencement ceremony saw 282 graduates walk across the stage to collect their diplomas in preparation for that crucial next step.

Below are a few scenes from Friday’s graduation ceremony; stay tuned for the full story in a future edition of My Buckhannon.
