After transitioning their final quarter of high school to online learning, Ash Fork High seniors Evelyn Acosta, Marco Ayala, Brooke Dziubla, Alex Keele and Christopher Vazquez will all graduate May 21 earning both their diploma and the associate degree. Potential students at Ash Fork High, a Title I school with 100% free and reduced lunch eligibility, are now identified to participate in the degree program during their freshman year through a combination of grades, standardized test scores and overall character. Ash Fork High’s graduation ceremony is on Thursday, May 21 at 7 pm at the school soccer field.
