Congrats to Lenaira Williams, one of three seniors selected to receive the Supt.'s Florida Prepaid 2-Year College Plan Scholarship!

Despite facing many challenges that could have easily derailed her from her dreams, she turned difficult moments into opportunities for growth.

Meet our 2nd senior to receive the Supt.'s Florida Prepaid 2-Yr College Plan Scholarship, Vivian Gaither HS' Misael Lebron!

From battling leukemia in the 8th grade to his family facing financial challenges as a kid, he beat the odds & kept such an infectious smile through it all.

From having incredible gains in the classroom to reaching personal/professional milestones, I wanted to take a moment to thank our teachers for all of their hard work.
