A Kentucky high school graduate, Micah Price, faced initial diploma denial after veering off his approved script during his commencement speech at Campbell County High School. Wearing a purple cap and gown, Price garnered applause as he began his speech by praising Jesus Christ, deviating from his planned remarks. Despite the applause, school administrators intervened, withholding his diploma following the ceremony, citing his breach of school guidelines.
Price, who took to TikTok to share his experience, acknowledged his technical violation of school rules by discussing Christ during his speech.
