This year Meadowbrook Academy celebrated the graduation of eight students — the largest graduating class in the school’s history.

The school held a commencement ceremony Saturday at noon. The graduation was held in the First Christian Church of King gym, and extra chairs were added to accommodate the crowd of family, friends and teachers.

A reception was held in the gym after the ceremony.

This year’s graduates include Ashley Renee Boyles, Ashley Dale Cox, Ian Powers Dunlap, Cheyenne Devin Jones, Nathaniel Kole Mabe, Kayla Renee Miller, Casey Dylan Sprinkle and Andrea Michelle Vernon.
