Drake has graduated from high school at the tender age of ... 25?
The Canadian "Make Me Proud" rapper got his high school diploma yesterday, 10 years after quitting school to star in "Degrassi: The Next Generation."
"97% on my final exam. 88% in the course. One of the greatest feelings in my entire life. As of tonight I have graduated high school! " Drake tweeted Wednesday evening.
He went on to thank his teacher, Kim Janzen, "for spending the last 5 months working tirelessly with me!!"

The Toronto native, who was known as Aubrey Graham to his classmates at Vaughan Road Academy and the swankier Forest Hill Collegiate Institute, left the school in the early '00s after landing the role of Jimmy Brooks in "Degrassi: The Next Generation."
As the basketball star who becomes disabled and ends up in a wheelchair, Drake did, in fact, graduate from high school onscreen in 2009. And despite dropping out of school in real life, following "Degrassi," Drake went on to carve out a music career that has him rubbing shoulders with the likes of Rihanna and Lil Wayne.

But, as MTV notes, Drizzy never seemed to forget his school years, rapping on his 2011 track "Crew Love": "I guess we'll never know what Harvard gets us/But seeing my family have it all/Took the place of that desire for diplomas on the wall."
Could Harvard be next?
