The Obamas Celebrate Sasha's High School Graduation
On Sunday, the whole Obama family gathered to celebrate Sasha's high school graduation. Barack and Michelle watched their youngest daughter, who just turned 18 on Monday, take part in the graduation ceremony for Sidwell Friends-the exclusive D.C. private school that both Obama children attended.
The school posted a photo of the whole senior class on Instagram, which, of course included Sasha. Like the rest of the girls, she wore a white dress for the occasion. (She's fourth from the left, in the second row from the top.) "Congratulations to the Class of 2019!" the caption read. "We can’t wait to see the great things you will do!"

According to Us Weekly, Sasha is set to attend the University of Michigan this fall. Her older sister Malia, who was also present at this Sunday's graduation, just wrapped up her second year at Harvard.
The Obamas were hardly the only political family at the ceremony. Joe and Jill Biden were also in the audience, to watch their granddaughter Maisy Biden receive her diploma.
Joe Biden opened up about Maisy's milestone at a campaign event on Tuesday. "Her best friend is Sasha Obama," Biden said of Maisy, per the Hill. "Barack [Obama] and Jill [Biden] and the whole family, we had a whole get together."

Biden also posted a photo with Jill and Maisy on Instagram. "Maisy, you make us so proud and we can’t wait to see what you do next with your talent, smarts, dedication and kindness," he wrote in a caption. "The future is yours, and Nana and Pop will always be right behind you."
