Six exceptional students were celebrated during the Class of 2025 Eden School Commencement. Teachers, parents, and staff came together on June 17 to honor graduating seniors Alina, Danny, Gadiel, Haris, Matt, and RJ.
“As we look back today on the journey our students have taken — a journey that may have started out with hesitant, tentative steps — we see just how far our young ladies and young men have progressed,” said Chief Program Officer Dr. Rachel Tait. “It has been an honor and a privilege being part of their journey and watching each one of our students continue to grow and develop new skills each and every day. We are proud of all of the graduates and the progress they have made, not only this year but since they have been here with us.”
Alina is a hard worker who is always smiling. She has a big personality and loves getting attention and hugs from staff. She works five days a week at Piazza & Associates, and she is the queen of spicy hot Cheetos.
Danny is the Eden School’s resident Swiftie. He can often be found dancing to Taylor Swift songs. When he isn’t dancing in the classroom, he can be found working at the Mercerville Animal Hospital.
Gadiel’s teachers say that his smile and laugh are contagious. He is a typical teenage boy who likes to joke around and socialize with those around him. No one quite does an entourage quite like Gadiel!
Haris is very independent. He can complete his work tasks without assistance. In class, he also enjoys some academic work. Outside of the classroom, he works at Windsor Athletic Club.
Matt loves to joke around with staff. He is always quick to pull a fast one, which is followed by a good laugh and his signature smile. He works five days a week, and three of those days are full days!
RJ works five days a week! He is very independent. When he isn’t working, he enjoys watching sports highlights. His teachers say he is quiet, but when he opens up, he is one of the funniest students.
Congratulations to all of our graduates!
