Scappoose High School Graduation, June 6, 2009

Hanna graduated from Scappoose High School on Saturday, June 6th, with an overall  3.67 GPA for the three trimesters she was enrolled in the Senior Class at SHS this past school year as an exchange student from Germany.   Hanna's credits for her 9th, 10th and 11th grades at Gymnasium in Germany, plus her credits for the 15 classes she took as a senior this last school year at SHS met all State of Oregon and Scappoose School District requirements for graduation from high school in Oregon.  There were a lot of the other 172 graduates in her class who wished they had the grades she earned.  Hanna worked very hard for her grades and accomplished a lot this last school year.   During the year Hanna made presentations in several of her classes at the request of her teachers.  In addition, several teachers from other classes sought her out and asked her to also speak to the students in their classes.   Hanna is very personable and a very effective speaker.   She represents the best of what a foreign exchange student can be and of the youth of Germany.  DeeDee and I are very proud of Hanna, as I know her Mom and Dad, Sabine and Dieter, are back at home in Germany.
