The graduates are Narissa Blackwell, Phillip Bowers, Ellen Dowling, Deanna Gambino, Lisa Kerner, Barbara Mills, Brian Reedy, Jennifer Wagner and James Yanacsek. 

City of Monroe's Human Resources Director Debra Chestnut Reed recognized each graduate individually and presented them with a certificate of completion.
