Most of you may know this, but Steve has been in credit union school for the past three years, this one being his last. It is a two-week course that is in the middle of summer (and always messes with our family vacation!!!). Each year they have had to take a test at the end of the two weeks and the last two years, they had to work on a huge project that is turned in April 1. True to his form, Steve usually was working on his up until the last minute (procrastination is his strength!). However, it must be a gift with him, because on both projects he did very well and received Honors, if not High Honors.
In order to graduate with Highest Honors, a student must get Honors or High Honors on all tests and projects. We were so proud of Steve when he was one of 8 people to graduate with the High Honors title! YEAH!! And it was great to see his fellow co-worker, David, also graduate with High Honors! It was an impressive thing for a credit union to have two students achieve such an accomplishment in the same year!
They didn't find out until the night of graduation how they did on their last test, and let me tell you, Steve was sweating bullets. He definitely didn't feel totally sure of himself on it, but God was watching out for him, and he received a great score!
And, of course, I forgot to take my camera to this special event, so fortunately his co-worker's wife brought her camera and shared a photo with us! So, here is Steve & David with their boss, Barbara and the CEO, Vince.
