I just noticed that the graduation rate at Alton High last year was over 94%. Congratulations! I think you should shout that from the rooftops! I think a great thing for this city (which we all know has it's share of problems) would be to emphasize to new residents and new businesses the value of an outstanding school system. Just a thought!!
