Carah Allen graduating as Cedar Hill High's valedictorian is not the same old song. It's a tune of triumph. Her 1st crescendo? A rare college scholarship and the beginning of an amazing journey.
- High school graduations are always special and whether kids choose a school close to home or move away the time is the unofficial transition into adulthood. No one knows that better than a young lady graduating on May 31 from Cedar Hill High School and she has more than one reason to celebrate.
"Me and my mom were running around saying 'How am I going to pay for school? How is this going to happen?' And then, April 20th came and I finally got a scholarship. Because we've been struggling financially, so to have that... it really was a blessing." In other words, worry less and do your best. Carah plans to use her motto years down the road, as a career counselor for other high school students.
