Twenty-eight graduating 8th-grade students from La Cañada Preparatory, adorned in blue caps and gowns, recently processed down the aisles of Lanterman Auditorium to “Pomp and Circumstance” before administration, faculty, family and friends. Director Terry Villanueva gave the evening’s first remarks with a heartfelt goodbye and motherly words of advice.
