Celebration of Success Award Ceremony
On May 15, North Orange County ROP and the Career Education Foundation honored students at the 46th Annual Celebration of Success Award Ceremony. Instructors and Career Guidance Specialists nominated students who demonstrated outstanding achievement in their ROP classes. These students completed an online application and a select number of finalists were interviewed by industry partners, award sponsors, and support staff. Out of the 16,000 students that NOCROP serves, 34 exceptional students were chosen to be honored at the intimate ceremony. The winners were given a total of $23,000 through the Career Education Foundation and each received Certificates of Recognition from the following legislators that serve North Orange County ROP schools: Senators Ling Ling Chang, John Moorlach, and Tom Umberg; and Assemblymembers Phillip Chen, Steven Choi, Tom Daly, Tyler Diep, and Sharon Quirk-Silva.
