Celebrating Graduates in the Seattle School District
Honoring an Inspiring Graduate at Garfield High School
On Monday, June 19th, Richard Coone fulfilled a long-held dream by receiving an honorary diploma from Garfield High School in Seattle. Joining the graduating class at Qwest Field, Mr. Coone's journey to this momentous occasion spans over sixty-five years.
In 1941, as a senior at Garfield High, Mr. Coone was poised to graduate alongside his peers. However, World War II altered his plans. During his junior year, he joined the National Guard, fibbing about his age to serve alongside his older brother in the Battery 146 Field Artillery Battalion, which included many Garfield students. Before he could graduate, he was deployed to Fort Lewis and didn't return until 1945. After the war, he dedicated over thirty years to working at the Seattle Times.
Garfield High School, along with other Seattle schools, is proud to honor Mr. Coone for his enduring commitment to the state of Washington and the nation.
Seattle Alliance of Black School Educators Annual Honors Event
The Seattle Alliance of Black School Educators (SABSE), a local chapter of the National Alliance of Black Educators, will host its annual recognition dinner on June 21, 2006. This event celebrates outstanding graduating students and retiring faculty from Seattle schools.
SABSE awards scholarships to deserving students selected from various Seattle high schools. Criteria include academic performance, school and community involvement, financial need, and an application essay. These scholarships support further education for the recipients.
This year's dinner will also honor five retiring faculty members for their exceptional dedication and service to Seattle's educational community.
SABSE, part of the National Alliance of Black School Educators (NABSE), is devoted to the academic success of America's children, particularly those of African descent. Founded in 1970, NABSE focuses on improving the educational experiences and achievements of African American youth through innovative teaching methods that enhance inspiration, attendance, and overall performance.
The organization aims to advance the education of all students, focusing on African American students. It seeks to build a coalition of African American educators and professionals to exchange ideas and strategies, improve opportunities in education, and prepare African American leaders to influence public policy on education.
Through these initiatives, NABSE and SABSE hope to underscore the significant contributions of African Americans to the United States and inspire students across Seattle schools.
