5th Graders Witness the Journey to US Citizenship
On Thursday, September 19, the fifth grade class witnessed 122 immigrants, from 48 different countries, become American citizens. The 22nd Annual Naturalization Ceremony took place at the Charles Pinckney National Historic Site in Mount Pleasant and is the last step in the naturalization process. The process takes roughly six years and culminates in this final ceremony. Two of our very own students, Sarah Hoffman and Cruz Nunes, were chosen to lead the Pledge of Allegiance. It was an honor for our students to be a part of this special day for so many new Americans.
