Guest Commentary: Thoughts from the Virtual Graduating Class of 2011

William Cattron, a PA Cyber Charter graduating senior, was chosen as the senior speaker for the Western Graduation ceremony.
Nearly 1,500 students graduated from PA Cyber Charter School this year. In his speech, Cattron characterized his fellow grads as a " graduating class that has taken advantage of a cutting edge education."
"Seek out the opportunities that are there for your special talent and go live an exceptional life—a life with purpose and meaning. Show the world what we PA Cyber graduates have and can accomplish. We have not and will not be assembly lined—our individual differences are what make us strong. These individual differences will make us successful," Cattron urged his classmates.
"My family and I continued with PA Cyber because we learned that it had a better math and science curriculum and I had greater access to college classes while still in high school. I’ve enjoyed my college classes and my PA Cyber virtual classes, especially the interaction with the other students and teachers," he continued. "Thank you PA Cyber for helping me fulfill my high school dreams and preparing me to achieve my college dreams."
