Student John Gibson Receives GED at the age of 60

Mr. John Gibson received multiple and enthusiastic applause at our annual Student and Volunteer Recognition event on April 29th at the Sanford House. He was acknowledged for good reason-he had just accomplished a life long dream by earning a GED at age 60. We were both proud and happy for him at the same time. Mr. Gibson showed unusual perseverance, showing up to study every day for a year. His dedication was a wonderful model for the rest of our students. On June 19, in cap and gown, he walked across the stage at Richmond Community College to receives his richly deserved diploma. We wish you all the best !!
