Congrats from Dr. Sue Miklos

As I look at each graduate and their hopes for the future, I am overwhelmed with happiness when I think of how far they have come with their academic success and in their personal lives. The future is already looking brighter for our graduates.

Children in foster care are in the high risk category for dropping out of school. The abuse, neglect and separation has such an impact on our youth. Bair has been an integral support system through our foster families and case workers who pray for their success in every area. Many of our foster care families continue to support our graduates while they age out of the foster care system and begin to navigate into their adult life, giving them a support system like no other. That is what makes Bair stand out because we stand beside our kids.

The milestones that youth in foster care meet and exceed require more work and tenacity as well as a lot of encouragement and love from their families.

Blessings on the class of 2023!
