The staff would like to recognize them all and appreciate every student who has made a small difference in their academic career to get better and make a difference in this world.
The staff of Denison High School would like to thank everybody who helped with this ceremony and all family members who gave their time and support to their students to work hard and make an impact at Denison High School.
