Dear Dr. Baldwin:

I just wanted to make it known how grateful I am to be graduating from Middle College rather
than the high school I attended prior. I love how small BCMC is Its a more comfortable
environment unlike most public schools which are super crowded, and its harder to get a word
in edgewise. Not to mention, the principal and school counselors/teachers are all awesome! They
make a great team, and they definitely made my graduation possible. I can honestly say I
probably wouldnt have went back to school after dropping out if I would have had to re-enroll in
my base school again. Thank you so much for everything!
Sincerely,

Stephija Patterson
