Join us in celebrating an incredible accomplishment - this year, 100% of our graduating seniors earned their high school diplomas! 💙🙌

Our community, Friendship Baptist Church, and Landmarks for Families staff came together to celebrate three graduates as they take the next step toward their futures. Two are headed to nursing school, and one is pursuing tech school to become a welder.

We can’t wait to see all they accomplish next!
