Not everyone who is successful in life was necessarily a successful high school student, graduating at the top of their class or even graduating from high school at all.
For everyone who needs a second chance, adult education through the Branch Intermediate School District is one local option.
Destiney Everline is one of those students. She dropped out of high school the first chance she had and was a mom by the time she was 17.
Now Everline is a Glen Oaks Community College student and in February was named a top academic achiever.
“As one of the top 10 percent of of the college’s best and brightest students, you have been nominated to join the largest most prestigious honor society in the world, the Phi Theta Kappa International Honor Society, Alpha Delta Omega Chapter at Glen Oaks,” Ben Fries, GOCC advisor, announced via a letter.
