Salutatorian - Lauren R.
Every year, the senior class nominates a salutatorian to represent their class in a speech at graduation. This year, Lauren R. will speak on behalf of the class of 2022. Lauren will attend the University of Miami in the fall.
After four years of being involved in leadership through both Class and DEI Council as well as club president, Lauren discovered a number of passions and extracurriculars including working on the Tiny House and attending the Easter Break trip to France. Congratulations Lauren!

Tiny House Ribbon Cutting
For those who have been following along with @Carondelet_Engingeers, the time has finally come! The walls are up, the lights are on, and this tiny house on wheels is ready to roll. In their year-long project, students in the Engineering for Social Good course designed and built a tiny house on wheels that will go on to house agricultural workers right here in the East Bay. Thank you to all the sponsors, supporters, helpers, and the entire extended Carondelet Community for making this dream become a reality. Read the story about the Ribbon Cutting Ceremony in The Mercury News.
