Milton Hershey School

As we count down to our 92nd Commencement Ceremony, we’re reflecting on the rich history of ceremonies that came before—moments that capture not just graduation day, but the challenges, milestones, and spirit of each era.

Here are just a few of those unforgettable moments:
🎓 In 1943, a smaller, wartime class gathered in the school auditorium for Commencement.
🎓 In 1945, empty seats marked with banners honored graduates who left to serve before graduation.
🎓 In 1953, a joint Commencement Ceremony with Hershey High School and Hershey Junior College celebrated the town’s 50th anniversary—featuring speaker Milton Eisenhower.
🎓 In 1981, the first female students graduated from MHS.
🎓 In 1995, Coretta Scott King delivered a powerful Commencement address.

Each ceremony tells a story of resilience, community, and possibility—and now it’s time to celebrate the next chapter.

Today, Milton Hershey School seniors kicked off Commencement week with the Senior Chapel and Ring Ceremony.

During this final Chapel service, students were given letters they had written to themselves in August at the Senior Only Chapel, outlining their goals, hopes, and expectations for their last year at MHS.

At the end of the service, students each received their class ring. The MHS class ring tradition dates back to the 1930s, symbolizing unity and a deep connection to the Hershey legacy.
