Midyear Graduation for 18 at FFS

Published: Tuesday, December 21, 2010 7:00 am

Eighteen Family Foundation School seniors received their high school diplomas during midyear graduation exercises on December 18, 2010. An additional four FFS students completed the school's 18-month character education program and returned home to complete high school. According to Ann Janauer, FFS principal, 15 of the graduates have been admitted to 2 or 4-year colleges, two are entering the armed services, and one is undecided.

With its year-round admissions policy and two 25-week semesters, FFS holds graduation ceremonies in both June and December, enabling students to move on as soon as they have completed the school's academic and program requirements.
