CHRISTOPHER

I came into this program unknowing what I was going to get out of it. Six months ago, if someone told me I was going to college I would have laughed and gone on my own way.

College is a doorway to a life we never thought we could have, and this program is now our key. All we have to do is apply ourselves; we can be anything we want. I didn't think of this program very lightly. As a matter of fact, I didn't take it very serious; but I got a lot more out of this program than a college acceptance. I now have more pride, dignity, and integrity in what I do.

Before this program, I suffered a great loss. My father was a great man who would be proud of me. He taught me many things, but the main thing that applies to me and this program is that the choices we make will dictate the life we lead. I'm proud of this group, and good luck.

I'd like to thank the staff. They have taught me a lot, and I' d be lost without them. Thank you, and congratulations class!
