Former PCA Student Returns

Former student Louie Gonzalez stopped by PAL Charter School Academy to say hi and give his condolences to Executive Director Dwaine Radden Sr. for the loss of his wife and father. He was an early graduate of PCA at the age of 17 and was the recipient of multiple PAL Charter Academy scholarships. Radden said, "Louie and his mother petitioned him three times for early graduation due to her health. I finally gave in when his mother was pushing for him to graduate. Louie is truly one of PCA's success stories. He was at PCA for all four years." Louie said, "I didn't want to be anywhere else but PAL Charter Academy. It is a great school with great teachers." Louie is in the second year of his nursing program. Radden said, "I am so proud of him. He is the real deal!" He was a part of "Arms and Arms", a video where high Schoolers spoke about the Second Amendment. Mr. Radden submitted it to C-SPAN and it elevated PAL Charter Academy to National Notoriety. Bueno News
