Saluting graduates and Rising Stars

Don't miss Sunday's CDT for our inaugural special section saluting the graduates of Centre County high schools and recognizing the 11 Rising Stars for 2011.

This is a sharp section, with striking photos by our photographers. You'll meet the Rising Stars, each remarkable.

Schools reporter Ed Mahon coordinated this first Rising Stars effort from beginning to end. Four community judges reviewed the entries and selected the winners.

My previous column explained the Rising Stars initiative. I hope you enjoy the section.
