NOGALES, Ariz. — Andrea Cordova and Julia Wascher: They're two seniors at Nogales High School I met this spring.Though they both go to school together, they have very different stories.For the past four years, Cordova's mornings have started early before her long commute.
"The majority of our students are U.S. residents," says Tim Colgate, Nogales High School Principal."If they do commute, they do have to pay tuition." According to Cordova, her parents are paying $780 dollars each month for her to attend school here in the U.S."And I think the families too really the stress the importance of getting an education in the United States because they know how valuable it is,” says Colgate.“When we look at our graduation rate being a 95% or higher and the fact that we are an 'A' school and we continue to push limits in all of our academic programs,” Colgate says.
