In February, the Obama administration challenged high schools to high achievement. The winner--Kalamazoo Central High--gets Obama to speak at their graduation.
The six finalists: Blue Valley Northwest High School in Overland Park, KS, Clark Montessori in Cincinnati, OH, Denver School of Science and Technology in Denver, Colorado, Environmental Charter High School in Lawndale, CA, Kalamazoo Central High School in Kalamazoo, MI and MAST Academy in Miami, FL.
On the White House blog, Melody Barnes said the White House will work to get a Cabinet secretary or a senior administration official to deliver those high schools' commencement addresses.
