Most families of high school graduates throw the requisite celebratory party for loved ones to come and celebrate, but mom Ovella O'Neal took it a step further. She's so proud of her son AJ that she's sharing her happiness with the whole town. The single mother of six surprised AJ -- who will graduate from LEAP Academy in Camden, New Jersey this Tuesday, and will attend Rowan University in the fall -- with a billboard celebrating his accomplishments.

According to the Daily Mail, O'Neal paid $725 to rent out the real estate, which included AJ's senior portrait and a loving message from his family; she also rented an ice cream and cupcake truck to throw a party beneath the banner.

For his part, AJ was thrilled -- and he plans to thank his hard-working mom by buying her a house and a car in the future. The billboard will stay up for three weeks, and O'Neal hopes it will inspire other single mothers. "If I can do it, you can too," she said.
