For these young men, July 26 is a day they will always remember. The Nebraska Correctional Youth Facility (NCYF) commencement ceremony recognized sixteen graduates who received NCYF Community High School or State of Nebraska diplomas. The graduates worked hard to finish something that, in some cases, they started many years ago.

Since opening in 2008, the NCYF Community High School has seen 488 individuals graduate. Each has gained knowledge and tools to use as a foundation for success and to impact the lives of others. In fact, the beautiful landscaping in front of the graduates is a project built and maintained by the students of the high school.

Congratulations to the graduates and thank you to the teachers, staff and family members who played a part in guiding them to this milestone!
