CCS Class of 2025-2026
Thirty Years Strong
CCS Graduation & Award Ceremony 2026
May 16, 2026 | Duluth High School Theater | 30th Anniversary Year
A Day We Will Never Forge
Thirty Years of Showing Up. And This Ceremony Said It All.
On the morning of Saturday, May 16, 2026, the Chinese Cultural School of Atlanta gathered at Duluth High School Theater for something that felt bigger than any single ceremony — the 2025-2026 Graduation and Award Ceremony, held in the school’s 30th year of service to the Atlanta community.
Families filled every seat. Teachers stood at the front of the room. Students performed, received awards, and shared words of gratitude that brought tears to the eyes of everyone present. And through it all, one feeling ran through the entire morning from beginning to end — pride.
Thirty years of Saturday mornings. Thirty years of Mandarin lessons, calligraphy brushes, yo-yo strings, and lion dance practices. Thirty years of families trusting CCS with something irreplaceable — their children, their heritage, and their culture. This ceremony was the living proof that every single moment was worth it.
“This school will always be home. Go out, learn, and contribute to society — and know that we are always here cheering for you.”
