HAYWARD (AP) — A 100-year-old Hayward woman has received her high school diploma some eight decades after she dropped out. Mildred Principe got the diploma on Wednesday at Hayward High School during a tearful ceremony that included a limousine ride, orchestra music and a cake in her honor, the San Francisco Chronicle reported. “It’s unbelievable ... It just makes you feel better,” Principe said after the ceremony.
