Anita's Story
Life
My parents left Everett 4 days after graduation and took me with them, kicking and sceaming all the way. I wasn't happy about the move.

It was one of the hardest things I've ever done, but completing that challenge is also one of the things I am proudest of. My advice to young people today - STAY IN SCHOOL!! Don't do it the hard way like I did. But do it anyway you have to - and it's never too late to start.
