FULLERTON — Two dozen seniors walked forward to received diplomas from Eastside Christian High School during ceremonies Thursday night.

All 24 students report either going to a four- or two-year college.

“I love what we get to do with graduation. We have grown into a family here and, in turn, the students are leaders and servants like God calls them to be.”

Kim Van Geloof

Principal

“I would like to quote a bible verse, Micah 6:8. ‘He has showed you, O man, what is good and what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and walk humbly with your God.’ That’s what I hope for my class.”

Brittany Mousner

Valedictorian
