Rocinante High School
Congratulations to the Rocinante High School Class of 2025!
We are happy to celebrate the accomplishments of all 68 graduates, including the 53 students who walked the stage on May 21. This evening marked the final ceremony in a remarkable series of four joyful nights filled with celebration, culture, confetti, and heartfelt gratitude for the families and loved ones who stood by our students every step of the way.
Our favorite moment tonight? Rocinante’s cherished tradition of students presenting roses or flowers to the people they are most thankful for—it never fails to move us.
To close the ceremony, Principal JJ Sandoval left our families with one special assignment: Take a moment to tell your graduate how proud you are of them. They’ve worked so hard to reach this milestone, and they deserve every bit of love and recognition.
We are incredibly proud of each and every one of you. Congratulations, Class of 2025!
