Kylie Jenner was more than excited to announce her graduation from high school. The 17-year-old reality TV star took to Twitter on Tuesday, July 21, to share the good news with her fans though she never posted anything about her school life on social media.

"I finished school last week..," the "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" star revealed. "I know I never post on social media when I'm in class but that doesn't mean I don't encourage education! Because I do!" A source said that Kylie continued her education after ninth grade in a home school program to earn her high school diploma.

Back in May, Kylie also defended herself against bad rumors about her education. In reply to a fan's question about whether she would finish her school, she wrote, "I do school every weekday :) again don't believe everything you read." At that time, she told her fans that she would graduate in "1 more month."

Her graduation aside, Kylie had interaction with her fans on Twitter prior to announcing the good news. The youngest daughter of the Jenner-Kardashian family opened up about how she handled rumors about herself so far. She tweeted, "I appreciate and love u guys. Blogs & bullies have created rumors on me for years. If that's your case too. STAY TRUE. Different is dope."

Kylie also slammed one of her followers who apparently called her a "ho." She wrote, "@andalusianking I love feeling & embracing everything feminine. But I am not a 'ho'. That I am very sure about." The tweet about Kylie was immediately removed after her reply.
