Your mom has poured a lot of hard work into her few years at Fresno City College, and today her efforts were recognized by the school during the 2011 Fresno City College Honors Ceremony. It was essentially a special graduation ceremony for students completing their degrees or certificates with honors, and your mom was awarded a special certificate to commemorate being awarded one of a select few
national spots among thousands of members of her honor society, Phi Theta Kappa, who were nominated. It was her hard work in the club, her presence with the advisors, and her unwavering reliability which made the difference and helped so many others realize the specialness I see in her. I respect a lot what your mom has done in her time at that school.
