Preston Bradley Dandurand
It is so hard to believe that my oldest is a 2012 Yellow Medicine East High School Graduate! I am so proud of Preston! He has really had to work hard for his diploma! During 4th quarter, we found out that he was a credit and a half short in order to graduate. He had to do a full semester on social studies and a half credit of english in a matter of about 8 weeks. He had to do over 100 packets in that amount of time. His attitude when he found out this information was so negative and he felt so hopeless. With the support of Denine Rutledge and some encouragement from us. and A LOT of hardwork from Preston, HE DID IT! He graduated with 2 1/2 extra credits!
His plan for college is to attend Ridgewater College, majoring in Agri-Business and then (hopefully) transferring to SMSU to obtain his Bachelor's Degree. He will be living at home and commuting to Willmar. Along with school, he will be working at a Marina in Willmar and possibly at Menard's as well.
He has become quite the young man. My prayer for him is that he will finish school and get his degree, find a good job, save some money, and renew his relationship with God!
