On Friday, June 7, 2019, at the Anaheim convention center, 51 sixth graders graduated from Palm Lane Charter School, which last fall transitioned to a charter school following a long and protracted legal fight with teachers’ unions.
The graduation ceremony drew a crowd of over 200 attendees, mostly parents of the graduating students. The graduating students and their families were largely Hispanic and the event had a Spanish translator for those in the audience that didn’t speak English.
