The 2025 graduating class of San Pedro High School (SPHS) had commencement exercises on Saturday, June 7th, at the Angel Nuñez Auditorium. The graduation ceremony featured presentations, inspirational speeches, and the distribution of diplomas. The ceremony began at 4PM and was presided over by Samantha Santos and Zsapphirrah Coleman as the Mistresses of Ceremonies.

The anticipated celebration, attended by ecstatic parents and friends, lasted more than two hours and highlighted the accomplishments of 122 students, who were awarded numerous awards of distinction and high school diplomas.
Following the graduation, the San Pedro High School choir performed the Belize national anthem and school song. Father Eduardo Montemayor gave the invocation shortly after. Gustavo Ellis Jr gave the Salutatory Address. SPHS Chairperson Martha Duran and Principal Emil Vasquez walked to the stage to hand out diplomas and honors. A total of 122 students were honored. Awards were also presented to several individuals, including current SPHS teachers for their outstanding service, security personnel, maintenance workers, secretaries, and basketball coaches for their ongoing support of the school in education and sports.

Dorian Nuñez, the guest speaker, then took the podium and spoke encouraging words to the grads. He congratulated the 2025 SPHS graduating class and inspired them to achieve greatness. Nuñez emphasizes the importance of humility for success and encourages students to be respectful and helpful wherever they go.
Valedictorian Mikayla Castillo delivered remarks after Nuñez’s presentation. Her Valedictory Speech was inspiring and a reminder that hard effort pays off. Castillo complimented and commended her fellow students, wished them the best of luck in their future educational endeavors, and thanked all parents, family members, friends, and professors who contributed in some manner to the graduates’ high school experience.
SPHS Principal Emil Vasquez spoke proudly about the graduates. He congratulated them and their parents. He also shared that this would be his last year at SPHS, and he would be retiring after 33 years.
Mia Garcia and Tanisha Choco oversaw the Rose Ceremony, which involves students giving a rose to their parents or guardians as a symbolic token of gratitude for their assistance throughout their high school years. Elyonie Tillett offered the Vote of Thanks to conclude the graduation ceremony, and all 122 graduates marched out to the tune of Pomp and Circumstance.
