Next week SLO Classical Academy High School (sloCAHS) celebrates our graduating seniors!
We invite you to come see the Senior Projects on Monday, June 8 from 9:45-11:15 in the MPR. Our six graduating seniors have been working on the final project of their high school years. Each senior has chosen a topic that is meaningful to them that they will present to the school. Everyone is welcome and encouraged to come!
We are excited to send these six young people off on new adventures, and we thought you might like to hear a bit about their plans after high school:
