Wisconsin Virtual Academy and Destinations Career Academy of Wisconsin Celebrate Graduates with In-Person Commencement Ceremony
MCFARLAND, Wisc.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Wisconsin Virtual Academy (WIVA), and Destinations Career Academy of
Wisconsin (WIDCA), two online public-schools serving K-12 students
throughout the state, will celebrate the Class of 2019 at an in-person
commencement ceremony on Wednesday, June 12th. The ceremony will take
place at 6 pm at McFarland High School, outside of Madison.
Many assume that attending online public schools like WIVA and WIDCA
means that students miss out on the ‘real’ high school experiences, but
this in-person graduation proves quite the opposite.
This year, WIVA and WIDCA will graduate almost 207 students, over 7%
more than 2018, with more than 50 students graduating with honors.
Collectively, the class reports having been offered over $410,000 in
scholarships and being accepted to colleges and universities across the
country, including: Marquette, St. Augustine, UW Whitewater, UW Stevens
Point, and Southern Illinois University.
“WIVA and WIDCA’s Class of 2019 has shown the determination in their
education that will serve them well in college and beyond,” said
Wisconsin State Representative Jeremy Thiesfeldt (R-Fond du Lac),
Education Committee chair, and keynote speaker for the graduation
ceremony. “Like most kids, they have struggled, and they have succeeded,
but it is these life lessons that will set them up for success as they
begin the next chapter of their lives.”
Valedictorian’s will be Caleb Beck for WIVA and Savannah Klimpke for
WIDCA. Salutatorian’s are Erin Hutchens, Anna Perryman, James Rausch for
WIVA and Savana Strean for WIDCA. All students, as well as Nicholas
Sutherland, Head of School, will be available for media interviews.
Students enroll in virtual school for a number of reasons, including
those looking to escape bullying, some who may have fallen academically
off track, or those looking for an alternative to the traditional
brick-and-mortar classroom setting. WIVA and WIDCA students access a
robust online curriculum in the core subjects and a host of electives
and attend live virtual classes taught by state-licensed teachers.
Details of the graduation ceremony are as follows:

Apollo Green to distribute Humboldt Seed Company clonal cannabis genetics to Germany, Portugal and Australia
SAN FRANCISCO, April 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Humboldt Seed Company (HSC), California’s leading cannabis seed producer, has announced a partnership with Canadian-based Apollo Green to make eight breeder cuts available to researchers, licensed commercial cultivators and home growers in legal markets worldwide. This first-to-market clonal genetics release is a significant milestone and will expand access to distinctive, high-quality cannabis genetics in both established and emerging global markets including Germany, Portugal and Australia.
The curated, breeder-verified selection includes pioneering triploid genetics, such as OG Triploid and Donutz Triploid alongside the legendary cult classic Blueberry Muffin. Also available are All Gas OG with a THC content of 21% and four high-THC strains in the 30-35% range: Golden Sands, Guzzlerz, Jelly Donutz and Orange Creampop. These selections represent the top .01% from HSC’s extensive California pheno-hunting program.
Exports will begin in May under Apollo Green’s Canadian federal cannabis license. All shipments have Canadian phytosanitary certification, ensuring plants have been inspected, and are clean and free of pests.
“Access for all to quality genetics has been our core focus since the beginning,” said HSC Co-founder and Chief Science Officer, Benjamin Lind. “Our science-based approach to breeding aligns perfectly with Apollo Green’s high standards and we are excited to be able to extend these hand-selected cuts to a wider audience, especially at this pivotal time where we’re seeing positive regulatory changes globally.”
Oisin Tierney, Apollo Green Director of Business Development, said, “California has long been recognized for setting industry standards, and we are proud to play a role in bringing these esteemed genetics to cultivators worldwide. The triploids are especially noteworthy in terms of the unprecedented potential for enhanced plant vigor, higher yields, shorter flowering times and superior returns for solventless extraction.”
