June is graduation season and inside County Jail Three in San Bruno, a special group of scholars celebrated their accomplishments and showed off their newly-earned high school diplomas.
Inside County Jail Three in San Bruno 16 men marched to the front of the class, wearing black robes over their orange jail uniforms, doing something they never thought they'd do behind bars; earn their high school diploma. Their principal proud of her students accomplishments. "My heart is so, so full," said Terese Bravo, Five Keys Principal at SF County Jail. "It's been a challenging three years for us here and we've been there for these guys.
Daniel Mojica-Franco was among those who spoke at this graduation ceremony, saying he and his fellow students learned about themselves and their capabilities. "We have some proof now that our hard work can pay off and that even through adverse circumstances we can challenge ourselves and come out on top," said Mojica-Franco.
The path that led these students to be incarcerated here can now lead them to new opportunities, opportunities they may have never imagined for themselves. "It is very challenging, working in this environment," said Sheriff Miyamoto. "Celebrating positive moments like this give us all energy to keep going."
