PPEP tec celebrates commencement By Trisha MaldonadoDouglas Dispatch

“Fol low your pas-sion and you will never work another day in your life,” PPEP Tec Raul H Castrol Prin-cipal Will Fisher said to the 48 PPEP Tec Douglas and Sierra Vista students. “That sounds great but who here really knows what that means?”

The two hour ceremo-ny celebrated the com-pletion of one chapter of these young adults’ lives and the beginning of the next.

They sat in the Bis-bee Auditorium sur-rounded by friends and family some teary-eyed and some anxious to get the ceremony over with and start their own celebration.

But before any of them could leave the guest speakers Judge Alma Vildosola, Coch-ise College Ben Berry, board member Maria Chavez and their be-loved principal Mr. Fisher had some words of advice to give.

“My mother told me tough is when you can get up at five in the mor ni ng a nd work unti l nine at night being on your feet all day and then getting up in the next morning doing it all over again, day after day, week after week, month after month, year after year, decade after decade, until after four or five decades your bodies don’t function so well and you still continue to work like this,” Fish-er said. “That is real. You know al l know someone like this, your mother or father, your grandmother or grand-father, uncle or aunt there has been some-one in your life like this. Some have done this so you can have what you needed. Why would they do this? No-body want to do back-breaking labor their entire life. Most work is tiring and sweat with few spiritual re-wards. It’s something, something that needs to be done either its cleaning floors or a toi-let in a hotel, a busboy in a restaurant, taking care of someone in a hospital or taking care of another person’s child. The reality is we do these jobs for a pay-check. Is that all if is about? Is this why we do what we do?”

Fisher went on to ex-plain to the students what passion was, “to feel passion means that you care about what you are doing for oth-ers and how they feel about you. As you be-come adults I hope that all of you in your fu-ture endeavors inquire passion for whatever it is you may be.”

F i s he r pr e s e nt e d speaker Judge Vi l-d o s o l a wh o d r ov e from Douglas for this special occasion.

“We all know that life is full of gifts we haven’t received but we also know that it isn’t easy. Know that you have a whole life ahead of you to do things right. Everything that is worthwhile requires extra effort. I want to remind you that if you

have plans to reach your goals if something doesn’t work stop and try and correct it and start all over again,” she said. “If you don’t pass a class if your boyfriend or girlfriend breaks up with you if your parents are mad and they scolded you because you did some-thing wrong the world does not come to an end. Don’t go looking for excuses not to do things find motivation to do everything that is good for you and your future. There’s not lim-its to what you can do.”

Vildosola f inished with an inspiration-al phrase by Cesar Chavez, which had the crowd cheering.

“Class of 2014 Sí, se puede,” she said.

Berry told the stu-dents in his speech, you deserve everything you want and work for, you are going to have trials and tribulations. Some trials will try to break you, but you will have to overcome these trials.

“ T here a re a few things I ask of you, don’t make the world any worse, network, b e w a r e o f s o c i a l media and success is never stop learning,” he added.

“Nothing compares to those loved one who are your greatest sup-port system,” board member Chavez said. “We are here because of your accomplish-ments, we are here be-cause of you.”

“Sometimes fate is like a small sandstorm that keeps changing directions. You change direction but the sand-storm chases you,” Douglas student speak-er Roxana Solano said.

Solano herself had many storms to endure in her short life. She began her freshman year at Douglas High School. By her sopho-more year she felt more lost than accomplished. At this point she de-cided to move to Phoe-nix with hopes that a change of scenery would help clear her mind and find her way. This wasn’t so, Solano felt more alone and lost than ever before.

S h e r e t u r n e d t o Douglas and at this time also finding out she wa s pr eg n a nt . She gave birth to a beauti ful baby boy, Dominic Garcia.

“My son is every-thing to me he is the reason I want to suc-ceed,” Solano said. “And once the storm is over you won’t remem-ber how you made it through, how you man-aged to survive. You won’t even be sure, in fact, whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm you won’t be the same person who walked in. That’s what this storm’s all about.”

Sierra Vista student speaker was Marco O r t i z , “ P P E P T e c has done something I have never seen other schools do and that is create a place where everyone can really be who they are.”

But over all I will never forget my time at PPEP Tec and the les-

sons I’ve learned from the faculty and my fel-low students. It’s hard to believe that we are all really sitting here for the last time as high school students. We are done, for now. Now we are tittering on the edge of the rest of our lives having to grow up and head into the real work. The thought might be scary to some people but the truth is we’re ready we have all the necessary tools.”

Ortiz, once read that life is sometime rep-resented as a pearl deep within an oyster. The pearl symbolizes each person’s poten-tial or things that are going well for them in life. Just as a mere grain of sand that en-ters an oyster that can grow into something of value. There is a fragment of excellence in each and every per-son that over time can shape an individual into someone who can change the world.

The presentation of diplomas were present-ed by principals Fisher and Geraldeen Levi.

Once the diplomas were handed out Fish-er keeping with tradi-tion asked the students to take the white rose t hey received wit h their diplomas and give them to the one person in their lives that made this day happen.

The students took 10 minutes to give out their roses and emo-tional hugs and thank yous to their loved ones for all of their support.

Presidential awards were given to Douglas students : Pedro Fi-erro, Estela Hurtado, Raul Lugo and Roxana Solano. Sierra Vista students: Rueben Le-vario, Fitisuela Male-peai and Cody Pieren. Outstand academic ex-cellence awards went to Douglas students: Alma Flores, Elaine F ri sby a nd D eni se Villa. Sierra Vista stu-dents: Sabina Castillo, Diana Figueroa and Johnathon Givens.

Students thank family, faculty for successBy shar Porierwick News service

BISBEE — T he Doug-las and Sierra Vista Cen-ter for Academic Success held the 2014 graduation ceremonies at Bisbee High School Tuesday evening to a packed crowd.

For many of the students, it has been a long road to success, for others not so much. But, one thing was very evident watching the young men and women in their caps and gowns walk on stage and get that diplo-ma – they made it through the curriculum, passed and are now on their way to hopefully brighter futures and great successes.

Alexander Laskie, Sierra Vista class valedictorian, made it clear that without the help and love of his fam-ily, in particular his brother, he would not be standing on stage delivering the valedic-torian speech. Instead, he may have ended up in a Las

Vegas gutter without an ed-ucation and without family support and love.

“Many of you have told me that you wish you had some-one as dedicated to directing you to success as he was to getting me on a path towards winning at life. I have to say that I am forever grateful to whatever twist of fate led me to have such an amazing sibling tossed my way. All I have to say about him is that he inspires me every day to work harder, to push myself more. To better myself and try to do the same for those people I consider friends. Thank you Johnny, without you I would never have got-ten the chance to come down here and make something of myself.”

Laskie also gave credit to the faculty, whose foresight in determining the classes he needed to graduate and impressing on him the im-portance of graduating was instrumental in getting him to that stage as well.

“We are not just features in a sea of faces, we are in-dividuals with aspirations, and the teachers at CAS

were determined to help us succeed, all we had to do was ask,” he said.

Shelianette Rodriquez, Sierra Vista salutatorian, said that “most of you may enter the workforce, join the military or continue on to college, but no mat-ter what you do, remem-ber, it is up to you to decide what your future will be and what you will become. Today begins a new journey of self-exploration filled with endless possibilities.”

She, too, commended the faculty and said that, before she took an economics class, her goal was going to be in communications.

“Thanks to Mr. Barkley, I noticed that business may be my actual calling. Although I’m still incorporating com-munications, your class re-ally helped me make my de-cision. Supply and demand couldn’t have been taught better by anyone else,” Rodriquez said. “Mr. Es-trada, thanks to your class I learned a lot about stay-ing out of debt in the future and being smarter with my money. You were the cool-

est and funniest teacher and extremely helpful when it came to doing those long equations I hate.”

Rodriquez also emphasized the help and support of her father and family for getting her through school and into a new life.

Sierra Vista class repre-sentative Daniel Escobar learned many of life’s les-sons, one of which is to be a leader and not a follower at school and at home.

“I learned very valuable lessons that I will carry on with me for the rest of my life. I learned to be a leader and not mind those who try to bring me down. I learned to be a motivator and help those who want to be helped. I learned to be a good citi-zen and lend a helping hand whenever I am capable, to whom ever may need it. I learned to not judge nor be jealous of others’ achieve-ments, but to congratulate them and use them as in-spiration to achieve my goals. Most importantly, I learned that in life you have to make the time that you are in this world memo-

rable and filled with good deeds,” Escobar said.

The 41 students from the Douglas and Sierra Vista schools were honored by a rousing applause from friends, family and the teachers who had helped these young people find a way through life that will open doors of opportunity.

“After High School the last thing I wanted to think about was continuing school. I needed to make money and not have to re- take basic math and English courses that I had already taken in high school. Also, I needed some solid work experience so that I could pursue my dream job in U.S. Customs so I started at ACT as an agent and I was promoted a short time later. Now, working in Human Resources I realize that solid work experience and not a two year college degree is the best way to get started in the workforce. College will always be an option for me but not at the moment. That’s why a fulltime job with great pay at A.C.T. was the best choice for me.”

– Brian Trevino, A.C.T. Receptionist
