Graduate News
Here's to our newest Personal Management Diploma Earner: Cynthia
Always Be A Student
Keep on learning, (graduate's name),
Though your graduation's done;
Your whole life's an education
That has only just begun.
Your diploma is the first big step,
For knowledge is the special key
To winning what you want in life
And being who you want to be.
If you'll always be a student,
You'll find the secrets to success
And travel on the golden road
To peace and happiness.
