First Graduation at Formative Years Campus

Principal Maricela De La Cruz, Ed.D. and the UT-UCS campus at Laurel Ridge Formative Years at High Point are excited to announce their first graduate!

UT Charter School welcomed our Laurel Ridge Formative Years at High Point campus in 2015. Formative Years is a day treatment program at Laurel Ridge in San Antonio for youth struggling with behavioral health challenges. Due to the short-term placement of youth in this program, it won’t be common for students to finish their secondary education while attending but one very determined young person had the drive and desire to earn her diploma and move on to her post-secondary endeavors.

We are grateful to Principal De La Cruz; teachers Teresa Gonzalez, Raya Belton and Brittany Lopez-Hill; along with Collin Krejci and everyone at Formative Years for helping this student as she moves along her educational journey.

Directora Maricela De La Cruz, Ed.D. y el campus de UT-UCS en Laurel Ridge Años Formativos (Formative Years) en High Point se complacen en anunciar a su primer graduado.

Años Formativos (Formative Years) es un programa de tratamiento diurno en Laurel Ridge en San Antonio para jóvenes que luchan con problemas de salud conductual. Debido a la ubicación a corto plazo de los jóvenes en este programa, no será común que los estudiantes terminen su educación preparatoria mientras asisten, pero una joven muy decidida tenía el impulso y el deseo de obtener su diploma y pasar a su posgrado con gran desempeño.

Agradecemos al director De La Cruz; las maestras Teresa Gonzalez, Raya Belton y Brittany Lopez-Hill; junto con Collin Krejci y todos en Años Formativos (Formative Years) por ayudar a esta estudiante a medida que avanza en su viaje educativo.
