Hampton Roads Academy kicks off the high school graduation season with a ceremony 10 a.m. Saturday in the school’s Svein J. Lassen Auditorium.
Newport News Vice Mayor Herbert H. Bateman Jr., a 1976 HRA and a senior vice president of TowneBank, will deliver the commencement address.
HRA’s class of 2014 achieved a 100 percent college acceptance rate, with 98 percent of students accepted into their top-choice institutions.
