Big Bend Community College celebrated the conclusion of the 53rd annual summer academy, hosted by TRiO Upward Bound, with a drive-thru parade Friday. The 46 students from Moses Lake, Othello, Royal City, and Warden high schools that completed the program received certificates, awards and a photo with their personal mentor at the end of the parade route.

“This is the first ever (summer academy) to be held virtually,” said Tiffany Fondren, communications coordinator. “Our students did amazing and did everything virtually this year.”
