PCMI
helps redirect and motivate at risk youth to become productive members of the
community. On Tuesday, students stood before their peers to prove that anything
is possible.
Several students fell back
into school after dropping out years ago, but after overcoming several
obstacles, these students earned their GED degrees. "I'd like to thank all of PCMI; although there's
been times that we've had our differences, they've been there from the
start." Elijah Segermeier says.
"I would like to thank my parents for
pushing me so hard, because if it wasn't for them, I wouldn't be here
today." Amanda Loyd added.
Several other students were awarded
certificates for being role models among their peers. Each were assigned one of
the values PCMI instills in their students.
