Hillary Clinton speaks at 8th grade graduation in Bay Area

SAN FRANCISCO — Former Secretary of State and First Lady Hillary Clinton made a surprise visit to a private, all girls school in San Francisco on Friday and spoke at its 8th grade graduation ceremony.

Clinton rolled up to the Hamlin School in Pacific Heights at about 9:45 a.m. after the Secret Service arrived minutes earlier, clearing the area, according to a report on ABC 7.

Clinton’s appearance had been rumored for several days, family members of students posted on Twitter, but it was not formally announced or publicized. The school did post a video of faculty members rehearsing America the Beautiful before the graduation.

Hamlin’s head of school could not be reached Friday afternoon.

Mary Powell, the grandmother of a graduate, told ABC-7 that Clinton’s appearance was “thrilling. I think San Francisco is a very warm place for the secretary to come. She is going to be greeted very enthusiastically. I think the kids are going to be over the top in terms of what she has to tell them.”

A granddaughter of Clinton’s close friend Democratic donor and activist Susie Tompkins Buell was among the school’s graduates, ABC-7 reported.

Clinton was in San Francisco to pick up a leadership award Thursday night from the Giffords Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence. Pro-gun groups spent millions of dollars in opposing her 2016 presidential bid.

Susie Tompkins Buell

Maybe you can help ol' broken down Hillary onto the stage, Suze.

Nice that you want to remember her 'as she was', before karma took over.

“””Hillary Clinton made a surprise visit to a private, all girls school in San Francisco””””””

Why would she go to an elitist school that excludes boys and crossdressers and stuff? Sounds racist.

Eighth grade? This is the best gig she can get these days?

Those poor kids were probably traumatized for life.

Topic of the speech: how to wipe a server with a cloth.

She just wanted to be an inspiration for them in case they had dreams of coming in second place.

Did the 8th graders pay more for Hillary’s speech than the Russian oligarchs paid her?

She was there to tell them their parents are wrong—crime DOES pay. It pays really, really well.

Did Hillary ever speak at any graduations in “the hood”?

Poor editing, but I fixed it.
