By the end of this week, both the Kinnelon and Butler High School Classes of 2012 will have taken the bleachers, students draped in gowns and covered by caps, only to walk away from their high schools as "graduates."

To share in the excitement of the students, and their parents, Tri-Boro Patch will be bringing together a collection of articles that relate to this year's senior classes. We already have a few articles up to get our Tri-Boro Classes of 2012 topic page started, but make sure to bookmark it and check back for photos, videos and stories throughout the week.

Check out the Tri-Boro Classes of 2012 topic page here.

As the students graduate, Tri-Boro Patch was or will be there snapping photos and capturing the memories you and your family members are sure to cherish for a lifetime. But since graduation means so much more than just a one-day event, why not celebrate this whole week by leaving a comment for the graduate in your life?

Tell the seniors how proud of them you are in the comments on this article, wish them well in their future endeavors or thank the teachers for helping to mold the students into the adults they have become.

Tri-Boro Patch wants to help celebrate the senior classes the best way we know how. From us to you, congratulations to both the Kinnelon and Butler High School Classes of 2012!
