Barack and Michelle Obama 'did a little dance' during their heartwarming speech to graduates for YouTube's DearClassOf2020. 'It's a huge day for all of you... We couldn't be more excited to be celebrating with you today.'

Michelle added,"And these past few months, you had to reach even higher, you weren't just adjusting to a virtual classroom, you were helping your teachers adjust their audio so the rest of the class could hear. You weren't just taking your finals online, you were making sure your siblings had enough time on the computer too to finish their work.

"That's a lot to ask of anybody, and I spite of it all, you did it all," Barack expressed."We want you to know that the investment in your education is one of the best investments you'll ever make. We've seen this to be true for decades. The better education you have the more better likely and your families will be to fair."

"It's born out over the past couple months and it will continue to be born out for years to come. So you have done great," he continued."Hold your heads high and celebrate."In addition to the couple's words of encouragement on Sunday, the author's Reach Higher initiative is also hosting a full hour of content to celebrate the"Dear Class of 2020" ceremony.

"Since we launched Reach Higher, we had one clear goal in line. We wanted to make higher education cool," Michelle said, as a collage of images and videos of students played in the background."Because as a nation, that's where the spotlight should be: on kids who work hard in school, who do the right thing when no one is watching."

"Every single one of you has something to offer, and I can't wait to see you all achieve," she added.
