Derrick Harris was able to celebrate his college graduation in the same halls he'd worked in for years. The 26-year-old was the beloved janitor at Wacoochee Elementary School in Salem, Alabama. This spring, Harris achieved his dream and graduated from Wallace Community College Selma. He plans to attend Auburn University at Montgomery in the fall. With the help of his fellow faculty members, Harris was able to map out a college plan so he could attend classes at night and continue his day job at school.
