Jenny was born in Miami, Arizona on May 15, 1929, to parents Antonio and Magalina Sermeno.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
A Message to High School Graduates Congratulations to the many students who are celebrating their high school graduation this month. As a father of two with my youngest graduating this year from a public district school, I’ve seen how hard students and parents work to reach this milestone. This is a time to celebrate your achievements, and reflect on the future. Each decision you’ll make from here
will shape what path your life will take, whether that’s a trade school, community college, university, or employment. Making thoughtful decisions with the help and input from your family, teachers, and other role models will help set you up for independence and success. Whether you want to seek a profession in the education, utility, agriculture, or industrial and mining industries, you
will need more education to achieve a successful career and support yourself and a family. My job at the capitol is to ensure each child and every student has educational and occupational opportunities, as well as to ensure our state has quality roads, healthcare, and water infrastructure to continue to make Arizona a great place to live and work. I hope each one of you are successful
in what you want to achieve and always remember parents want our children to be even more successful than us and the only thing we leave behind in this world is our lineage and our reputations. May God bless each and every one of you and keep those dreams alive by focusing on them and your goals every single day. /s/ David Cook State Representative LD8
Superior’s Mendoza Earns AzNFF Honors By Andrew Luberda Superior Sun Superior High School senior Cedric Mendoza, a member of the Panthers’
state championship football team, was honored by the National Football Foundation – Valley of the Sun Chapter at the 37th Annual Scholar Athlete
Superior Football Coach Ryan Palmer and Cedric Mendoza
Awards Banquet, which took place on Saturday, Apr. 9, at the Scottsdale Hilton Resort & Villas. Mendoza, a 1A All-State selection at both wide receiver and defensive end, was named to NFF Valley of the Sun Chapter & Fiesta Bowl Charities Second Team. He was one of 60 Scholar Athletes honored representing more than 250,000 high school football players from 186 high schools in central and northern Arizona. The winners were selected based on the combined criteria of 40% academics, 40% football accomplishments and 20% school and community citizenship and participation. “Being recognized as a top-60 scholar athlete by the NFF is special to me because the award gives me a sense of accomplishment after four long years of hard work in the classroom and on the field,” said Mendoza, the owner of a 3.693 GPA and the 2018 1A East Region Defensive Player of the Year. Additionally, Mendoza is a United Dairymen of Arizona All-American, Vice President of his senior
class, as well as a DECA member and the FCCLA Treasurer. “Cedric is a disciplined and dedicated student athlete,” Superior head coach Ryan Palmer told the Superior Sun. “He is always in the weight
room, every day – first to arrive, last to leave. His work ethic is one of the best I have seen. In my opinion, he was the best defensive player in the 1A conference.” Mendoza attributes his success on and off the
field to a difficult and upbringing and a desire not to become “a product of my environment.” According to Palmer, the team didn’t know until after the season that Mendoza played Continued on page 9
