Celebrating 1,000 Penn Foster High School Graduates

Many working adults are interested in advancing their education and careers but often don’t know where to start. Where can you find an affordable, flexible education offering that works with demanding schedules and provides the right programs for workforce development?

Thankfully, we’re in the midst of a movement where employers are thinking more strategically about workforce planning and partnering with academic institutions to offer education benefits to their employees. 

Our partner Penn Foster is an example of a leading academic institution who partners with companies like Disney and Walmart to provide trusted online training programs to upskill workers and create pathways to better careers.

Today, we’re excited to announce an important milestone for Guild and Penn Foster: Over 1,000 students have graduated from Penn Foster High School!

These hard-earned high school diplomas are providing a critical stepping stone for 1,000 individuals. Hear directly from recent Penn Foster graduates on what this educational milestone means to them:

“I can’t thank you enough for all that your program has done for me and my family’s future.”
– Karalyn Kelley

“Education has changed me to start building the future that I long to have or shall I say deserve.”
– Debbie Rowell

“Never underestimate your intellectual capacity. You can fulfill your dreams as long as you maintain an optimistic attitude, and resolve to move forward.”
– Jean-Francois Vilmenay

“When I received my diploma I called my whole family. I sat on my living room floor and cried my eyes out because my parents never raised a quitter. I’ve never seen them more proud of me.”
– Leanna Cruz

We’re grateful for our continued partnership with Penn Foster and can’t wait to see what the future holds for these graduates.
