Graduation is a special time for many in the Valley, but for one Turlock family it was especially unique. Five members of the Briones family graduated from different schools in the area this spring, continuing the ideal of the importance of education that has always been at the family’s core. Marcelo Briones received his Master’s of Arts in Education from Stanislaus State on May 26, just five days after his oldest daughter, Marina, walked the stage at Sonoma State and was awarded her Bachelor’s of Arts in Psychology.
