Day School, a college preparatory learning community committed to
educating the whole child, celebrated the Class of 2020 on
Saturday, May 30 during a "drive-in"

still allowing the Class of 2020 to gather as a community. Many
vehicles were adorned with creative decorations congratulating the
students, as their family and friends cheered the class's many
achievements in a safe manner.
Mariandl Hufford, President &
Head of School at Miami Country Day School, delivered the
commencement address.
"On behalf of the entire MCDS community, I am honored to
officially congratulate the Class of 2020 on this amazing
achievement," said Hufford. "It has been a memorable year in so
many ways, with many stories to share and cherish. The Class of
2020 will always be connected by the events of this year, the
expected and the unexpected, and they will always be connected to
this community. We could not be prouder of them."
Klara Meyer and Sofia Paredes, the class' co-valedictorians,
along with salutatorian, Arian
Djahed and class president, Benjamin
Max Ginsburg all reflected on their time at MCDS.
The students of Miami Country Day School's Class of 2020 have
