Final Projects and Graduation!

Today my Clarity in English class (ESL) finished their final 10,000 word projects. They have been working on them all semester. We ate Chop Chey ( I am sure that is not the right spelling) and ginger spice cookies and celebrated their accomplishments. Each student chose a different topic to write their project on. The projects were Alzheimer's, Alan Greenspan, Greek Mythology, and How to become a flight attendant. I will miss them.


Tonight California Preparatory College had our first ever graduation!! It has been a long process from sitting around white Costco folding tables talking about how to start a college to having a graduation! We had two lovely graduates who completed their Associates degree. One was Vanity, who was a wonderful student in my undergraduate speech class.


I can tell she has a bright future ahead of her. She is transferring to La Sierra for their combined Master's in business program. It is nice to see the fruit of your labor in such a tangible way. I am very happy to be a part of this important endeavor.
