SIS graduates largest class

The Saipan International School graduated what headmaster Tim Bray called an “eclectic” bunch of high school students in a ceremony last Friday at the Saipan World Resort.

SIS’ senior class of 2015, made of about 29 students, was also their largest in its history.

SIS awarded two valedictorians, Minori Yoshida and Jee Hyun Lee. Yoshida heads to Columbia University.

Victoria Chentsova was salutatorian. She heads to Williams College.

Bray wished the students the success and happiness in the things they pursue.

“They are a very interesting group of people, they have their own personality as a class. I just hope for the best for them. They are all going off to college so I wish them the best success,” he said.

Russian, Japanese, Chinese, and Korean students, among others, made up SIS’ graduating class. The ceremony at the Royal Taga Hall of the Saipan World Resort was packed with friends and family.
