Student Surprises Classmates By Walking During Graduation

A student named Micah McDade graduated from high school last week in Okmulgee, Oklahoma, about 40 miles south of Tulsa.

Micah has cerebral palsy and uses a wheelchair to get around.  He surprised his classmates at their graduation ceremony on Friday, by WALKING across the stage to get his diploma.

His classmates and teachers had no idea that he had been working at it for months. As soon as he stood up, they realized what was happening and gave him a much deserved standing ovation.

He used a walker to help him balance and a woman was there to make sure he didn't fall.  Micah made it the whole way across the stage before he sat back down.

The announcer at the commencement said "Ladies and gentlemen, I've been doing this a long time... that is the best EVER!
