Greater Johnstown School District

Class of 2009

On June 5th, 2009, commencement was held at Trojan Stadium to recognize and congratulate the 270 seniors of the Class of 2009. Although on the chilly side, the weather held up for this celebration of a chapter ending, and a new one beginning. The band played “Pomp and Circumstance” as the students entered the stadium to begin the evening. Mr. Dan Resenic welcomed the crowd of family, friends and guests. Speeches were then given by Katelin Lindrose (valedictorian), Lindsay Lovrich (salutarian), Alex Skufca (class president), and a poem was read by classmate Ezekial Wilt. The ceremony proceeded with an emotional speech from the Superintendent, Mrs. Barbara Parkins and some encouraging words were given to the graduates by a guest speaker, Dr. Gerald Zahorchak. It was now time for Mr. Resenic to recognize those seniors with some final words as he prepares to say goodbye to his career here at JHS. The names were called, diplomas given, and hand-shakes exchanged to finish off the ceremony. Congratulations and best wished to all of the graduates of the Class of 2009!
