The F.I. Denning Center of Technology and Careers, the alternative school for Cleveland City Schools, has scheduled its graduation for this evening.

The ceremony takes place at 6:30 p.m. in the auditorium of Arnold Memorial Elementary School.

Dr. Barbara Ector, principal of the Denning Center, said 36 students are set to receive their high school diplomas this year.

This fall, the credit recovery program at the Denning Center is being moved to Cleveland High School. This means students working toward their high school diplomas will become CHS students — and have the opportunity to become CHS graduates.

Ector said members of the general public are invited to join the students and their families as they celebrate the students’ achievements.
