Salutatorian of LifeSkills of Leon County, Sophia Mitchell, was due to have a baby at her graduation ceremony Jan. 14. But, she didn’t let that stop her from attending.
“My daughter is what made me stick with it,” Mitchell told the Tallahassee Democrat. “I am doing this for her.”
Valedictorian Daniel Stribling was homeschooled most of his life, but came to LifeSkills to finish the credits he needed to earn a high school diploma and move on to college. He’s now studying mechanical engineering at Florida State University.
