Commencement Address
Director Jane Curran introduced the evening’s special Commencement Speaker: Roxanna White Jones. Roxanna has spent her career in education. In the early seventies, she was a teacher in a learning center. She acquired the learning center and built it into a fully accredited day school, where Roxanna served as Director and Principal for almost 30 years. That school became Accelerated Schools of Overland Park!
