The finals continue



Tonight graduations continue at Ramona and King High School. I was unable to attend King (as I can't be in two places at once), but was able to attend Ramona along with Dr. Beaty. I have now shaken the hands of 1,500+ graduates and unfortunately missed the 750 at King. Ramona had 429 pieces of Lego delivered to Principal Mills as part of the "senior gift" from each of the graduates. Included in the graduates were 104 AVID grads which makes up 1/4 of the Ramona grads. These are 1st generation graduates that are going on to the university level and have historical statistics that show a high rate of completion. A wonderful evening of celebration at Ramona.

Additionally, it should be pointed out that there was strong staff support throughout the event. It was also great to see the principals from the feeder elementary and middle school. Sierra Middle School staff also participated in the event.
