New Haven charter school celebrates 100 percent college acceptance for graduates

NEW HAVEN – For the sixth consecutive year, New Haven’s Achievement First Amistad High School hosted Senior Signing Day, which had nothing to do with athletic scholarships. Instead, it is a ceremony for the school’s seniors to announce that they have more than graduation to look forward to.

Inside Yale University’s Woolsey Hall, roughly 80 seniors proudly revealed their college choices.

“This fall, I will happily attend Bates College,” exclaimed Marcel Delvalle, of Bridgeport. This marks the first graduating class to include students from the Park City.

Delvalle and his twin brother, Jio’vanni, will both attend Bates, which is located in Maine, because their mother was nervous to have them separated. But they will be separated, Marcel claims. “I am not going to room with him,” he said with a smile. “ I need to meet new people.”
