On Signing Day, CMA students made their college choice known.

Most college signing days are reserved for athletes deciding where they would take their talents after high school. But since CMA's focus is primarily on academics, all students graduating on time were celebrated at an assembly on May 5.

The seniors arrived wearing T-shirts representing their respective colleges.

β€œIt was nice to see where everyone was going and how excited everyone is,” said graduating senior Traymani Thomas.

Words of encouragement were offered by Brian Ellison. Presentation of Certificates were celebrated with college adviser Patricia Hudson-Johnson, counselors Theresa Bennett and Valerie Foulks The assembly focused on the importance college and how it can be crucial to your success.

Senior Jada Hall said: β€œI am excited about attending Michigan State University in the fall and look forward to a career as in landscape architect.”

As an alternative they also spoke about how college might not be for everyone and trade school might be a route to consider. A reception with light refreshment followed for seniors and parents, and many juniors in attendance got some inspiration for their futures.
