Oklahoma Prison Has Largest Graduating Class in Its History

HOLDENVILLE, Oklahoma - Davis Correctional Facility celebrated its largest ever graduating class Wednesday.

Education administrators with DCF handed out 38 General Educational Development (GED) certificates, six associates degrees, 10 certifications from PBI CareerTech and 12 keyboarding certificates in conjunction with Workforce Oklahoma.

Steve Gage, former University of Tulsa quarterback and safety on the Washington Redskins NFL Superbowl team was the keynote speaker at the ceremony.

“We all stumble from time to time, whether it is self-inflicted or things out of our control,” Gage said. “No matter what life throws at us, we have to keep moving forward and by following Jesus, he will lead you in the right direction and keep you in the game.”
