This might be the coolest graduating class
ever.
K.C. Undercover star
Zendaya and gymnast
Gabby Douglas
graduated from Oak Park High School in Oak Park, Calif., Thursday. The
18-year-old Disney Channel actress and 19-year-old Olympic athlete
actually attended Oak Park Independent School, which allowed them more
flexible schedules for work purposes.
Zendaya
retweeted
a classmate who caught her sashaying down the aisle and flipping her
hair. "So I'm doing my graduation rehearsal and I don't know anyone but
they cheered when my name was called, thanks guys, ya'll the real
MVP's," she
tweeted. The "Replay" singer also
retweeted a student who tried to steal a selfie as she "walked by" and another teen who was
elated to have a star in their midst. "Thanks for finally bringing some excitement in oak park. Sincerely – everyone."
Instagram
Zendaya invited one of her friends, dancer/choreographer
Dominique Battiste,
to attend the actual ceremony at 5:00 p.m. "With a smile on her face,
she crosses the finish line...I love you so much @zendaya and am beyond
proud of your accomplishments and the grown woman you have become!"
Battiste wrote in an
Instagram caption. "So happy I was here to witness this moment...priceless."
Parents
received a notification via phone and e-mail saying parking might be an
issue, as this year's graduation ceremony would have the largest
audience yet. The school encouraged people to carpool. After getting her
diploma, Zendaya told her
Twitter followers, "IM AN OFFICIAL GRADUATE YALL!!!!!!!!!"
Twitter
Zendaya shared a post-graduation picture of herself on
Instagram
and included a lengthy caption, writing, "Shout out, not just to all
the 2015 grads but to the soon to be! Please remember knowledge is one
of the most powerful gifts we have the privilege of receiving...don't
take that for granted. To every soon to be grad, know that you CAN do
it! (if I can get through it then anyone can) It's a long road, so many
things will pose as obstacles in your way and at times the end seems
further and further away, but please remember the importance of that
beautiful mind you have and all the limitless powers you hold. All my
love #sorryforgettingdeep."
Meanwhile, her famous friend
Taylor Swift posted another picture from the graduation ceremony on
Twitter. "I'M NOT CRYING, YOU ARE. @Zendaya #ProudOfYou," gushed Swift, who's currently on tour.
Instagram
Like Zendaya, Douglas also shared a selfie on
Instagram,
writing, "not gonna lie. it was tough to balance school and gym.. but i
did it!" the gold medalist told her fans. "kno when u set ur mind to
achieve something u can do it. anddddd yeas i'm at the airport. gotta
get right back to the grind. love u guys."
