To Black UC Class of 2026. I am forever proud of each and every one of you. Seeing majority of you walk across that stage made my heart so happy and joyful. The growth from the day you walked in to the day you walked out has been beautiful to witness. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your journey. 

I know these last 4-5 years have been far from easy but last weekend was a testament that you are resilient and can conquer whatever life throws at you. Love you all dearly and can’t wait to see what’s to come next for each of you. 🎉🥹❤️

Ms. Jackie is officially clocked out ✌🏾

Although I was nervous about all the unknowns that come with starting college, those first few days eased so many of those anxieties through the bonds I began to build with my peers and the program’s mentors. As freshmen, we didn’t really know what to expect, but we quickly realized we could lean on one another, and many of those friendships have only grown stronger over time. Shoutout Creative Energy!"

 Congratulations Jordyn Bailey!
