WOODSTOCK --- President of the Woodstock Academy Class of 2012 told her fellow graduates "don't let fear keep you from moving forward. Embrace fear for what it is - an opportunity."
One-hundred percent of the class graduated June 10 under sun-filled skies. The valedictorian was Ian Sorensen. Salutatorian is Jeremy Geragotelis. Winners of the Yale Honor cups were Sorensen and Meagan Ferreira. Winners of the Donald and Hope Williams Scholarships for Outstanding Academic Achievement were Sorensen, Geragotelis, Ferreira and Alana Spalding.
For the traditional "small gift in exchange for the diploma," graduates handed Headmaster/Superintendent Kim Caron a fortune cookie, in commemoration of the academy's foray into opening its doors to Chinese students this year.
