- Christine Holland, then a senior, was part of the special ABC News "Hidden America" report on Strawberry Mansion High School.
I’m soooooo proud of the young lady that graduated. She took full advantage of that scholarship. I was wondering if she graduated. Yes sis!!! A degree in accounting, she will be able to send her kids wherever they want to go, I hope she pays it forward.
I am proud of you!!!!!
@Chris Nguyen gtfoh you coronavirus punk!
@@SunRaeeeee gtfo you racist!

“We don’t want nobody hitting Diane all of y’all back up”
Gabrielle Johnson I loved her
I loved her too!! Wonder how she’s doing
ikr omg
idk, diane could use a push or two
I come back to this video just for that scene
But what happen to the girl where her dad was the only one to show up ? that was a very good story in the first airing
She went to college on full scholarship and to got science bachelor’s and another scholarship
Mini Pony wow good for her
Charlie Velasquez what's her full name?
Mini Pony
I was wondering thank God for her
OneLove Lawn LLC that was so special to me
God bless that principal, Diane Sawyer and those who contributed to the plight of that school. Above all, to Drake who among many rappers prove that rap music is not all about negativity. Many rappers give back to their communities. Much success to all those students who strive to educate and better themselves.
You are right. A friend of mine daughter attended Howard Univ. She received help from Jayz. Now she is a lawyer with Google in Cali
@Yoshi Tekashi
It sends a message that people believe in them and want to help. Rapper, doctor...money is needed and saves lives..
Greatest principal of all time
@M Detlef Wow, you're an absolute scumbag.
fr tho FACTS
Thank God for the dad that was there for his daughter.
I am happy for that young lady who got her scholarships😢
This made me so emotional. Thank you to everyone who contributed to the success of this school.
YEEEEEEESSSSSSS!!!!!!I AM SO HAPPY FOR THEM!!!THIS BROUGHT TEARS TO MY EYES!!
drake is a beast, so sweet of him to do that
Right! I was super surprised! Their school has totally turned around!
Idalys Abrahams n
Funny thing is this is meek mill old highschool
Wow. A college graduate now. God bless her!!
I'm not gonna lie my eyes got watery
Tee High mine did too
College deposit fees are unnecessary. The fact that it took an opportunity away from someone because they cannot afford to pay is insane. 😔
I understand the deposit fees because each college has thousands of applicants for only a few spots and the deposit is the only way to ensure that spot.
Amazing what “sharing the wealth” can do to change a small community and an individuals life, especially to those less fortunate or unable to leave poverty.
Yeah it's amazing that only one ABC News special aired and it brought so much positive change to that school.
Jesus! This warmed my heart! I hope all of them at least graduated from high school.
That's the problem. Parents they expect the school to raise their kids. They have to do their part also. One parent at meeting says everything
Did anyone notice that guys hat at 6:31?😂
Team 3 lol he will go down in history
soond noods
Isabella 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I'm just noticing this😂
I can't make out what he wrote on it. Help please?
It's amazing how a bit of exposure helps. These kids lives have been changed and in a way, saved. Awesome
That principal is the best ever she even inspires me to do better. I like the quote she said “if you give kids hope they can succeed”
Great job. Schools are supposed to be safe places to learn, not a war zone. Here's hoping Strawberry Mansion - and many other schools like it - continue to improve.
Drake should’ve done gods plan music video in this school
Why don’t they have different lunch periods?!?!?!
I live around the corner from the school... I was told that the the school enrollment could be 1200 was less than 100..I guess there wasn't enough students to have different lunch periods
I'm crying 😭😭😭😭
I’m in tears the things people take for granted this story really moved me.
Congrats honey! Her smile is amazing!! So glad she went to college.
6:30 the writing on that dude's hat.... 😂😂😂
Good lord how are these kids so HUGE my god I’m 5’2 petite girl I was even smaller in high school and these girls look like grown women on steroids
Chris Nguyen lmao, you’re funny. What if someone said something to that degree about Asian Women?
Chris Nguyen And you’re small and very feminine as well. We understand what your problem is.
@Chris Nguyen The most shallow, narrow-minded, and undereducated comment Ever.."African" peoples can come in literally 100 shapes, sizes, weights, and body structures, and alot is determined by genes, diet, and region they live..various eastern, some northern and some central African countries the people are rail thin, and it still varies across the entire continent..tragically, in "America" where they put "growth hormones" in massive amounts of food, especially food that is supplied to public schools, this is what causes accelerated growth, or even obesity in some that engage in no physical activities, hence why you CAN SEE AN OVERGROWN/OR OVERWEIGHT "ASIAN" CHILD, HISPANIC CHILD, EUROPEAN CHILD ETC, because they are All ingesting what is comprising and affecting their natural structure or normal growth rate.
Not a Drake fan, but that was dope what he did.
super heartfelt moment until you see the guy's cap at 6:30 say 'Send Nudes' hahahaha
Jazmin Lee I guess they had to lighten it up a little was getting too misty in there lol
It was so hard not to cry while watching this. I have never seen schools this bad in England but I am extremely happy for all the students that were able to feel noticed. I wish them happiness and success in life! Honestly I wish I knew about the donations beforehand. In the UK we don't have to worry so much about paying for university since there is always student loans or alternatives to university like apprenticeships which still results in a degree.
looking for them better days. God is Good...
Joel Sotelo your god is dead no one is listening to your prayers
i am sick and tired of you type of people responding to people who are talking about god. if you didn't like that comment dont comment at all
Ashley Dey fuck you and fuck your god
Ashley Dey when did I say I was a atheist lol
Silence The God emmantreele our god will never die! Shut up dude!!
What a wonderful person that principal is I started to cry when she whispered I love you💔
Im literally crying. That principal deserves love and hugs. a noble prize. Kids born into unfortunate circumstances should recieve assistance and resources. Seeing her graduate brought tears to my eyes. so well deservedd
we need to see more stories like this and more encouragement because a lot of kids are struggling to get to college and get through college or even eat through college!! so to see this gave me a little bit more faith in humanity!!
That girl Malaysia should have been given a transfer or a scholarship to attend a private high school
OMG!!! LOOK AT GOD....I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS, CRYSTAL DID IT!!!!!🥰
she reminds me of...Mr.clark..sweet lady💕
GOD'S PLAN
God bless her. This melted my heart. A strong, beautiful, determined, persevering young woman she got that diploma and you could tell by the look on her face when she was walking down the aisle that she grew significantly as an individual thru that entire journey... these kids are stronger than anyone will ever know. Pushing thru each and every day despite the challenges/struggles they face. God bless, Dios put your blessings on these children and this community and the adults who do their part
I'm a teacher and I'm crying watching this
That is so strange that the entire school has lunch at the same time. I've never ever heard of that before! That needs to be changed asap!!!
yess... so happy for her
Beautiful principal with an amazing heart. Drake was amazing too. I almost cried at what he did. If you kids who went and still attend this school are reading this. Keep moving forward, to not only make your lives better, but the lives and happiness of others better aswell.
The 14 dislikes are horrible people
Drake really meant I love you when he came...
wow....beautiful story!!!! heroes....our future is bright!!! one person and a community truly can make a difference in someone's life. God's love and blessings!!!
That is how we help our own, EDUCATION kudos to this principle God bless you mum
RESPECT to that black father that was the only one who showed up.
6:33 😂😂”send nudes” on his hat but 🤭Touchful
G J 6:30*
The police was playing Praise Him on the piano
God is so good!
I wounder what happened to the little boy
❤❤❤❤❤ RESTORED: My faith in humanity ❤👏🏼
👋🏾🙏🏾✊🏾🔥 The principle is amazing. It does it take a whole army, sometimes it takes one individual to come forth and care. I give my sister kudos all day. Also I’m very thankful for all the people that cared about these kids and prayed for these kids.
Thanks UA-cam for making me cry at 7 in the morning! 😭
This just shows you how much that if you believe in yourself you can do it.
Im.choking up the younge women who graduated she is absolutely beautiful. Drake saying I love you I believe him. I love them too!!!!
Really heartwarming but Drake......
I'M CRYING SO MUCH FUCC
Im so happy to see this, but what happened to the boy who was making potatoes in his room and was helping his family a lot??
The part that makes me sad at 3:32 she said she would go to PhilaU (Philadelphia University) I was just finishing my Freshman year there. The campus is small but that just means we have more reason to interact but I never met her I was in a 5 year program that took me a little longer than it should to graduate (I'm not very academic and history and technical math are hard) so instead of graduating when she did like I was supposed to I graduated after her.
Such a beautiful story. ONLY GOD can put it on someone's heart like this principal to make a difference in these students' lives so they could succeed. Congratulations to Christina as well. I wish them all the best.
My TEARS DROPPED when i saw her graduate in college... congratulation
y'all catch that dudes hat @ 6:30 ? 😭
1:18 She’s a real one for guarding her
It's almost as if we give poor students the resources and opportunities they'd be successful
Omg I was hoping she ended up successful! Good for her 💕.
I knew she would be okay. You go girl!
That was so sweet and touching of Linda Cliatt-Wayman to be Razzaq’s mentor after transferring schools and moving out of the city and for her to visit Christine at her college graduation. We need WAY MORE principals like her that show love, brave, gratitude, motivation, and care to students!!!
This shows we can help people find a way back if they want it. We can get rid of the problems if we try and care.
Dudes cap at 6:31
wow! amazing
I could not help but get emotional, what a great principal, I have so much admiration for her, one parent turned up for teacher parent day, that speaks volumes. My heart goes out to those pupils.
way to go Christine. you are amazing
Probably could've been a lot more productive and academic contributions drake could've made besides building a recording studio but okay..
whats wrong with a recording studio? are you against music programs?
shut the fuck up lmao.
CTE electives are what make school fun. Students do better in school when they're having fun
It’s something. Did you donate anything?
She's isn't saying the recording studio is bad, but damn he could've donated so many supplies, money, etc.
❤️I cried
Apiphany J me tooooo!!!!
No parent other than a few cared about his kids :(
godbless!!! god is great((': godbless drake Lol Honestly
Proud Of Them!(':
Aw this ended upon a great note.
How is that a video of petty fight has more views then this. This bring meaning back 2 life God bless them
flip flip flipadelphia
