On the recordJune 12, 2025
I rise to celebrate the historic 2025 graduating class of Martin County High School. The proud Gators made history with their first graduation since the unification of South Creek High School and Riverside High School. The Gators had their first outdoor graduation ever in the swamp. There were hugs, smiles, dancing, chest bumps, and even tears. A touching moment was when Jaden Wiggins' parents accepted his diploma. Only weeks before he was due to graduate, he was tragically killed in a vehicle accident. Yet, his memory remains with his classmates. The graduation exercise not only ended with the turning of the tassels but also an amazing fireworks demonstration. The spirit of unity was incredible. I congratulate the parents, teachers, education support professionals, administrators, school board, community, and, above all, the students. I congratulate the class of 2025.
