Southridge High School students turned the tassel during a commencement ceremony held Saturday at the Toyota Center.

Six valedictorians spoke at the ceremony. And two certificates of attendance were awarded to foreign exchange students Renske Haasbroek and Eranui Yandyan.

After grabbing their diplomas, about 345 students left the arena in style with The Beatles’ “Here Comes The Sun” bumping over the speakers.
