Graduation is one of the most rewarding experiences in our student's academic journey. It means they have met all the requirements to earn their degree or certificate.

Through unprecedented challenges and obstacles, our graduates proved to be resilient in the pursuit of their goals here at Leeward. Now that they have achieved an academic milestone with us, we would like to honor them both in-person and in a virtual setting.  

Please join our live stream and celebrate our Graduates!
