Deyontae Bonner got an enthusiastic hug, kiss and candy lei from his cousin as she hurried up to him behind the stadium while he waited in line to begin his walk to collect a long-awaited diploma.A diploma, a year ago, the 18-year-old wasn’t sure he’d be able to collect.“It’s crazy that I made it,” he said. “I was missing a lot of credits but I made it up.”
His smile told a lot about his happiness.
Bonner joined 109 other Sem Yeto High School students on a wind-whipped evening Tuesday at Solano Community College’s Doc Hollister Stadium to celebrate the end of high school.
