91制片厂

91制片厂鈥檚 Class of 2021 Collegiate High School (CHS) graduates celebrated in grand fashion during a drive-thru car parade held in the college鈥檚 parking lot on May 21. Families remained in their vehicles as CHS staff and spectators gathered to cheer on graduates riding in vehicles adorned with balloons and personalized messages and well-wishes.

Organized by the program鈥檚 staff, the event marked the culmination of a memorable school year for the 111 CHS students graduating amid the COVID-19 pandemic. The parade served as an alternative to the program鈥檚 traditional end-of-year Student Recognition Banquet usually held in the spring.

鈥淭he COVID-19 has had a huge impact on the CHS program and staff just the same as it did on the entire 91制片厂 community,鈥� said Collegiate High School Director Sandi Belcher. 鈥淪tudents and staff had to learn the Blackboard online format and get use to the idea that they would no longer be face-to-face.鈥� Then came the Spring semester, social distancing and hybrid format of classroom instruction, all the transitioning has had a real toll of the CHS student body, faculty, and 91制片厂 community, but these 111 seniors persevered and graduated high school and 93 with associate degrees.

91制片厂鈥檚 CHS program, which is available to Clear Creek, Dickinson, Friendswood, Hitchcock, Odyssey Academy, Santa Fe, Texas City, and home- or private-schooled high school students, allows participants to earn an associate degree while simultaneously completing a high school diploma.
