"It's one of our rituals. [It's] particularly important because we haven't been able to do it for two years although all of our seniors were admitted to college last year and the year before, but because of the pandemic, we weren't able to publicly celebrate," said Tim King, Founder and CEO of Chicago Urban Prep.
The signing part of signing day comes when each senior writes his name and the college he's attending in a book the school calls their"Credimus Book." Credimus is Latin for"we believe"."I'm just so excited for him. I just am," said Krystele Matthews, parent of a graduate."I feel like he has a really bright future, like the skies the limit for him.""It's very difficult being young and Black and a man.

Thank God for racial quotas, eh?
Congratulations! The graduates and their families must be proud!
Too bad there aren’t any Trade schools for skilled trades. America needs more skilled workers to keep the infrastructure in tact. American kids need to understand there is nothing wrong working with your hands to create substance. Thank you for the trades💪🏽
College acceptance versus college readiness A little less than 44% of the school’s 2016 graduates were persisting in college based on the latest report.
Most state universities accept 95%+ of applications, if not 99%+
Sure to trigger the fragile 😂😂
Congratulations to all of the students. Such a wonderful accomplishment for all of them.
Awesome 👍🏻👍🏻
Is this one of the ones with the racist admission policies, or is that only the magnet schools?
God bless them, and this is no comment on them but rather modern higher education: you have to be brain dead not to get accepted somewhere these days. This stat now indicates little more than a school’s students can breathe on their own (but not necessarily wipe themselves)
Amazing how well those charter schools work without the interference of a militant CTU. Time for SchoolChoice
young people MakeVotingBluein2022Cool. Save democracy for life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness, because there is not one damn thing cool about GOP Fascism: it is nasty and brutish.
