Emilio Valderrama and Shayne West

June 3, 2026

My name is Emilio and I plan to continue my education at Access. What are your plans, fellow seniors?

Warren Hill: UCLA. It’s my dream school, I’ve been wanting to go there since I was a little kid, and my parents went there as well.

Angelo Gulley: I’m still undecided, still making up my mind.

Michelle Caniengues: I’m going to college in engineering, currently I don’t know which college, it’s between Cal Poly SLO and UC Berkeley, depending on their decisions.

Jared Isma: Hopefully, I will go to a good college. From how my admissions are going, I don’t think I might get into Berkeley, but if not I would like to go to Sacramento State.

Amy Portillo: I plan on attending a four-year college, I’m striving towards Berkeley, looking to get into bio science.
