Ten Douglas High School students received college degrees during Western Nevada College’s graduation ceremony on Monday.
Roque Chavez, Lila Ellis, Cooper Eyerly, Sarah Flynt, Ava Kerley, Brooklyn Laremore, Jersie Leedom, Grace Plummer, Hailey Wagstaff and Aleeah Weaver were among 168 high school students earning associate degrees.
Douglas High School’s graduation is scheduled for June 14.
“The WNC Jump Start Program continues to grow, and I am so happy for the high school, charter school and homeschool students who will complete their associate degree even before receiving their high school diplomas!” said WNC President Dr. J. Kyle Dalpe. “These students are ready for the next step whether that be transfer or entering the workforce. Congrats to them all.”
Between all of Western Nevada’s campuses 617 graduates are receiving 692 degrees or certificates in spring commencement. Nearly 90 of those graduates are Douglas County residents.
“Our graduates have worked hard to reach this point and they and their families have made sacrifices in order to reach this milestone. I am so pleased to say congrats to each of them,” said Dalpe.
