Quavo dropped out of high school just months before he was set to graduate, so he recently announced he'd completed his courses and received his high school diploma.

Congratulations are in order for Quavo Huncho! The world has been finding inventive ways to celebrate the Class of 2020 after the COVID-19 pandemic shut down their plans to celebrate their accomplishments. Proms were canceled, graduations were relegated to being online or nixed altogether, and students were lamenting not being able to get together with their peers after finishing their school years. What no one knew was that Migos rapper Quavo was locked in and doing a bit of studying of his own, and on Thursday (May 21), he shared that he'd officially received his high school diploma.

"Finally Can Say I Graduated High School Class Of QUARANTINE 2020," Quavo wrote on Instagram. "We Lit 🔥 Now What College Should I Go To?  And To Celebrate We Gonna Drop SMASH TONIGHT 🔥🌊 BERKMAR HIGH NAWFSIDE BABY." Then, the rapper shared that Migos would be dropping their YoungBoy Never Broke Again-assisted single "Need It" tonight to kick off the celebration.

Quavo was a football star at Berkmar High School nearly 10 years ago, but just months shy of his graduation, he dropped out of school. This has been a moment long in the making for the accomplished rapper, so we congratulate him on completing his goals. Check out his posts below.
