Commencement Thank You!

Rachel Montejano and I would like to thank everyone from Palo Alto College; the always wonderful and patient folks at District; Freeman Coliseum; Aramark; Freeman Decorating; Holiday Interiors; Flash Photography; the PAC Jazz Ensemble led by Dr. Armin Tadeo Marmolejo; Ginger Carnes; Sirena Abrego; and Councilman Richard Perez for making PAC’s Commencement Ceremony a success! We especially want to thank the Commencement Committee, as well as everyone in the Instructional and Innovation Center, plus the District personnel who picked-up, delivered and returned all our equipment and supplies to the Coliseum from PAC. Finally, we want to thank all the staff and faculty members who volunteered to give up their free time to help us run the ceremony, or participated in it, along with Chancellor, the Chairman of the ACCD Board of Trustees, and attending Board Members. Without everyone’s help, it never would have gotten done.

Rachel and I would also like to thank our hardworking staffs who really deserve the credit for putting the Commencement Ceremony together.

A “BIG THANK YOU” to all the graduates who participated in the ceremony and gave themselves, family members and friends a night to remember!

If you attended the ceremony, please take a moment to email me and let me know what areas need to be improved on, or give me your ideas for something new to try next year.


With Sincere Appreciation to Everyone,
Rachel Montejano
