More Than a Diploma: The Senior Experience & Graduation

Graduation marks the end of one chapter and the beginning of another. This week on Your CUE, graduating seniors, educators, and school leaders from across Douglas County celebrate the achievements, growth, and experiences that have brought students to this milestone while reflecting on the opportunities and support that helped prepare them for what's next. Joining the conversation are graduating seniors Clara Kercher and Aubrey Groth of Glide High School, Ruby Brink of South Umpqua High School, Roseburg High School educator Tasha Stevens, South Umpqua Superintendent Ericka Bear, and Glide Superintendent Robert Freeman. Because a diploma represents more than academic achievement, it represents years of learning, growth, resilience, and the collective investment we make in the future of our youth.
