School officials, friends and families gathered at UT's LBJ Auditorium today to celebrate the 45 seniors graduating from the Premier programs at Lanier and Travis high schools.

Interim Superintendent Paul Cruz highlighted some of the students' achievements, including a first for Premier Travis: two students successfully enrolled in and completed one or more dual-enrollment courses through Austin Community College.

Cruz also praised the class for 100 percent of graduates having applied to one or more institutions of higher learning.

While ACC was the most popular choice, the class included students who applied to several other technical programs and post-secondary institutions across central Texas.

Congratulations to the Premier at Lanier and Travis high schools classes of 2014!
