Suri had on a bright red graduation gown over a white dress that almost reached her ankles, pairing the look with a pair of heels.
The teenager, who has mainly stayed out of the spotlight, held on to her graduation cap as she hung out on the Manhattan block while chatting it up with loved ones, most notably her mother Katie.
Katie , 45, rocked a yellow sweater over matching slacks and also wore some silver pumps.
The Dawson’s Creek star had on a pair of sunglasses as she laughed it up with her only child.
At one point, the mother and daughter hugged while smiling and taking photos on Suri’s big day following years of hard work at the Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and Performing Arts.
Later on, Suri seemed to do a shoe swap, trading in her fancy heels for a more comfortable and casual pair of high-top white Converse.

Tom Cruise and his youngest daughter Suri have been estranged for over a decade
The 18-year-old hasn’t seen her father since her mom, actress Katie Holmes , divorced him when she was five.
Katie, 44, gained sole custody of Suri in 2012 and a generous settlement from her ex-husband.
Many fans believe that the reason behind the split was Tom’s association with the cult-like religion of Scientology.
After the divorce, Katie went off the grid with her daughter as they rebuilt their lives in New York, 2,400 miles away from the action star.
The actor has been accused of putting his religion before his daughter, with ex-Scientologists claiming he has been ordered to shun the Dawson’s Creek star and their child as non-believers.
High-profile former church member Samantha Domingo, daughter-in-law of opera singer Placido, said in 2019, “You can’t be anti-Scientology if you’re part of Tom’s family, you will be disconnected — look at his daughter Suri.”
She added that the church, which believes mankind is descended from an alien race of gods, viewed Suri “as a spiritual being in Tom’s daughter’s body.”
Despite his estrangement from the teen, the Top Gun star has remained in contact with his two older children, Isabella, 31, and Connor, 29, — who are both heavily involved in Scientology.
Tom adopted the two while married to his ex-wife Nicole Kidman, who has also allegedly been cut from their lives as a “suppressed person” — SP — someone who does not believe in the church.
As for Suri, following her 18th birthday, it is believed she may have made a big decision in her personal life.
Tom previously denied cutting his daughter out of his life.
In 2013, he sued the publisher of two magazines he felt had implied that he had “abandoned” her.
