On Thursday, the school held its tenth annual State of The College.
It featured an address from the school President — and a President’s Medallion Award presentation.
This year, Doctor Ben Duran and his wife, Dr. Rosemary Parga Duranm, were recognized for their significant impacts on Merced education.
Ben was the former Merced College president, while Rosemary was the former Merced City School District superintendent.
