There was a mixture of emotions Friday evening after Lockney High's graduation ceremony. When the seniors gathered outside the section of their high school that was burned by arson earlier this year big hugs were shared w/ smiles and tears. It was a tough year for Lockney High; congratulations for coming out stronger.
