Cheer on two seniors to graduate

The Daily is following the progress of Tanner High seniors Kearra Mosely and Tabitha Blankenship, who nearly dropped out of school because they couldn’t pass a portion of the state’s graduation exam.

With help from a new program aimed at lowering dropout rates, the students are receiving tutoring and other assistance so that they can graduate with their class.

Readers can encourage the students by going online at MyDecaturDaily.com. Look on the left column for the header "Your Town" and select "South Limestone" to leave motivational messages for Kearra and Tabitha.
