Some of our proud grads.

Some of our proud grads.

Today is one of those days when the success of our program is clear.  This morning,  we celebrated our graduates: 6 High School grads and 23 GED grads.  Our keynote speaker was Maurice Raspberry, a CHMO grad as well as our first college grad – he holds a BSEd from Harris Stowe University.  Seeing all those proud faces in caps and gowns and listening to words of encouragement and praise was a testament to the potential our youth each possess.  Today was also a day to recognize the many volunteers who bring their time and gifts to Covenant House.  We celebrated this occasion as a community — youth, staff, volunteers, board members and families  — with a picnic on our parking lot.  Congratulations to all our graduates and thank you to all those who made their accomplishment possible.
