MARTIN COUNTY, N.C. (WITN) - Milestones will be made and celebrated during tonight’s graduation ceremony at Martin County High School for both its seniors and the school itself.

Tonight marks Martin County High School’s first commencement since the county merged South Creek and Riverside High Schools into one institution.

Last May, the Martin County Board of Education voted to close South Creek High School and move those students to Riverside High School.

South Creek closed at the end of the 2024-2025 school year and consolidated with Riverside last summer.

The graduation ceremony is at 6:30 p.m. today.
