Reggie and the State Capitol

On Thursday, Reggie was invited to speak at a committee meeting at the State Capitol in Denver about his experience at his high school, Colorado Springs Early Colleges. It was such an honor for him to be chosen, along with three other students, to represent his school.

He spoke about his experience at his school and how it has impacted his life and will benefit his future. Reggie goes to a school that is located within a local University. He takes both college classes and high school classes together. Next year when he earns his High School Diploma, he will also earn his Associates Degree in Engineering. It is a great program that we are blessed he has been able to partake in. 

He was accompanied by one of his guidance counselors, three other CSEC students and his grandparents, who took the following pictures to document his experience.
