Albany International Center celebrated a close-knit group of eighth-graders on Wednesday, and they are now officially in high school!
The 27 students, who are in the beginning stages of learning English, heard greetings from Principal Rachel Stead in Arabic, English, Spanish, Farsi and Pashto at their Moving-Up Ceremony. They received awards and certificates, and they kept the party going at a reception afterward.
The students will be members of the Albany High School Class of 2028. Best wishes to them and their families!
