In the words of nominee Jharrel Jerome (LaG '15)
recipient of the 2015 Alumni & Friends Dr. Marjorie Dycke Memorial Drama Award
"For the past four years, I have found a perfect home at LaGuardia. I have been able to experience new things as well as take on many new challenges. I am now off to bigger things that will challenge who I am and what I have learned throughout high school. With help of LaGuardia students, faculty, families, and Alumni & Friends, I am now proud to say that I can overcome any challenges I must face. My dream is to come back in a few years and say, 'You have supported me all the way, I am back! Take some money!' Until then, I am so grateful for your support and love."
