Went to Dominguez High in Compton...dropped out midway during my sophmore year to go to work full time...school was too stressful due to gang activity, guns, violence, etc...couldn't focus on my primary purpose...

Relocated to Altadena and attempted to finish up at an Alternative school in Pasadena with not much success...

Finally, finished up at Fremont community adult school five years after I was originally supposed to cross the stage...

Glad I went back to finish up...

Banning High in Wilmington, Dropped out in the end of the 10th grade cause i thought the teachers were the worst but because of where i lived i couldnt goto another high school, So i went straight to adult school and took the High School equivalency exam & passed with an average score that placed me in 90th percentile.

Brother graduated from John Muir, Sister graduated from PHS and sister graduated from Blair...

I was in a hurry, so I left before graduation...
