Special ceremony honors Bryan Community graduatesApproximately 55 seniors from the Bryan Community Focus Program crossed the stage at Lincoln East High Penrod explained why the Bryan mascot of the Phoenix is an important reminder for students. The Phoenix represents a symbol of renewal, of overcoming darkness and succeeding.“Many of our graduates have experienced their own personal darkness. Some had given up countless times, some had many people give up on them. A few were told they would never graduate. And a few more experienced loss, failure and bad luck. However challenging these situations were, our graduates chose the option of renewal, of taking advantage of an opportunity to atone for past mistakes and missteps,” Penrod said.East history teacher wins prestigious fellowshipAlise Pape, a history teacher at Lincoln East High School, has been awarded a James Madison Fellowship, one of only 53 awarded nationwide.She can use the $24,000 prize toward earning an advanced degree that includes a concentration of courses on the history and principles of the U.S. Constitution.“Neither of my parents have college degrees, and obtaining my master’s degree has always been a goal of mine so this all still feels surreal,” said Pape, who will continue teaching at East while pursuing her master’s degree in American History. “I am so fortunate to be offered this fellowship and to be given the opportunity to become a more well-rounded educator for my students. This application started as a desire to be a better educator, and now I am humbled receive this opportunity so that I can better serve my community and my students.”Calendar
