Drake is a man of many achievements, but now he can add being a high school graduate to his long list of accomplishments!

NEW MUSIC: Kendrick Lamar & Drake “Poetic Justice” 

Despite being one of the brightest rappers in the game, Drake was unfortunately a high school dropout. 

On the horizon of a budding acting career, a 15-year-old Drake decided to drop out of high school to pursue acting on the teenage drama series Degrassi: The Next Generation

Dedicated to keep a promise he made to his mother and himself, Drake laid low this summer to focus on getting his GED.

After completing his final exam, Drake is officially a high school graduate.

Elated about his achievement, Drake hopped on Twitter to thank his teacher, Kim Janzen, and share the good news:

Obviously, Drake’s decision to drop out of high school was a gamble that he openly doesn’t recommend, but we’re glad he finished his education. 

Hopefully, other high school dropouts and rappers without high school diplomas will see Drake as an inspiration to further their own education. 

Congratulations Drizzy!
