GORHAM — Thirty students in the Class of 2019, most of whom have spent many years attending school together, reached the end of their public school days on Friday evening, June 7, at the commencement exercises in the Gorham Middle High School gym.
Earlier, at Class Day, successful local businessman Dan Dagesse, grandfather of graduating senior Melvin Olson, happily surprised the students by announcing that he would give $1,000 to each of his grandson’s classmates, nearly all of whom are going directly onto further education. Over a third will attend White Mountains Community College in Berlin; two will go to the University of New Hampshire, one in Manchester and one in Durham; two to Keene State University; two to New Hampshire Technical Institute in Concord; and others to a wide range of both colleges and vocational schools.
