Take a deep breath. We’ve made it! We’re finally here! After 13 long years of homework, crowded hallways and waking up painfully at 6 am, we are about to graduate high school and forever be remembered as the Class of 2016, one of the best classes North Mesquite has had in years. Congratulations!
Unfortunately, as one door opens another door closes. Take this time to look around you and realize that this will be the very last time the entire class of 2016 will be together.

From our successful football, soccer, baseball and sports teams to our successful theatre, choir, orchestra and band programs, North Mesquite’s Class of 2016 has never been more
