Congratulations to the Tech Valley High School Class of 2026!
On Thursday, June 25, Tech Valley High School proudly celebrated the graduation of the Class of 2026 at the University at Albany Performing Arts Center. Surrounded by loved ones, our graduates celebrated the culmination of four years of learning and growth.
During the ceremony, five student speakers reflected on the lessons learned. They spoke about finding a sense of belonging in an unexpected place, taking the time to truly listen to others, embracing growth over perfection, living with purpose instead of simply checking boxes, and recognizing that even small actions can create a ripple effect that makes the world a better place. Above all, they reminded us that the relationships built at Tech Valley with classmates, teachers, and mentors are what made this community feel like home.
The Class of 2026 leaves Tech Valley with an impressive record of achievement. Collectively, 24 graduates earned college credit while still in high school, including five students who earned 16–30 college credits, five students who earned more than 30 college credits, and one graduate who earned an Associate Degree through Hudson Valley Community College. In addition, 12 graduates completed more than 150 hours of community service, demonstrating stewardship to their communities.
As our graduates begin the next chapter of their lives, they leave Tech Valley with more than academic knowledge. They leave with the ability to solve problems, courage to embrace change, the curiosity to keep learning, and the understanding that success is measured not only by what you accomplish, but by the impact you have on others.
Congratulations to the Class of 2026! We are incredibly proud of all you have accomplished and look forward to seeing the difference you will make in the world. Welcome to the TVHS Alumni Family!
