Ilham Graduated High School!

One of our very own has graduated high school! Ilham Eli graduated as Salutatorian of East Literature Magnet School. We are so proud of her accomplishments. Ilham has been in our afterschool program since the fifth grade and we are thrilled to have been part of her journey. It has been our pleasure watching her grow into a very smart and beautiful young lady. Ilham has enrolled with Belmont University for the fall semester and found enough grant money and scholarships to pay for the entire year without having to take out a loan!

At her graduation ceremony, Ilham gave a speech and did such a wonderful job that we wanted to share it with you. HOWEVER, I'm having trouble uploading the video. I'll keep working on it, so check back!

And here is a picture of Ilham with a VERY proud Miss Becky!


Today is the last day of school for Metro! Next Friday, I'll post the video of what our students worked on their last few days.
