55 Lobos graduate from Vista High School in Yuma

YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) - A local high school celebrates the achievement of its class of 2026.

55 students from Vista High School graduated on Wednesday night.

The ceremony was held at the Yuma High School auditorium.

The Vista High principal says this means a lot for the students because they succeeded despite several challenges.

"It's a school of choice in our district, so see kids finish tonight is especially meaningful, because they want to graduate early, because they face some barrier, or just because vista was the best fit. It wonderful to see it," said David King, Vista High School principal.

This was the first of six high school graduations that will be happening this week in Yuma County.
