Mission accomplished.

Coupeville High School Class of 2023 students stepped lightly across damp grass Saturday at Mickey Clark Field to accept their diplomas.

New worlds and new challenges await in the future.

But, for a moment, it’s all smiles as they hold the reward for finishing a 13-year trek.

On to graduation. But first, a victory lap. (Morgan White photos)

Hit the gas and head to graduation.

Coupeville High School seniors hopped in an assortment of vehicles Friday and did a tour through downtown.

Now it’s on to the big show itself — graduation for the Class of 2023 — which goes down Saturday starting at 1:00 PM at Mickey Clark Field.

Stroll on by, Wolves

They walked this way. Then back that way.

A day before graduation, Coupeville High School seniors strolled down a familiar path.

The Wolves exited CHS Friday morning and strolled down the street to the elementary school many of them attended, where they were greeted by lil’ kids following in their path.

Then it was back to the high school, for a moment at least, where the senior car parade awaited.

One more box checked on the way to becoming alumni.

Remember when Coupeville High School graduated about 35-40 students every year?

Pepperidge Farm does.

Well, tell that to my typing fingers, which are working a lot harder this time around, as 88(!!) Wolves are slated to receive diplomas Saturday afternoon.

That’s up from 54 a year ago, which seemed, at the time, like quite a few future Cow Town alumni.

This year’s epic event starts at 1:00 PM at Mickey Clark Field — right behind the elementary school on S. Main St. — and tickets are not required.

The bumper crop of CHS grads this year includes three students from Open Den and seven foreign exchange students.

Alphabetically, they are:
