'Ready, Set ...Hello, World' Wood River High School graduate Spencer Cordovano stretches out before sprinting to the finish line and his hard won diploma. He, along with his 206 classmates, graduated with honors, accolades, laughter and a few tears Wednesday night in Hailey. The biggest class to ever run through the school district system in Blaine County, they are headed to colleges in New York, Boston, Pennsylvania and Michigan, as well as throughout the West, including British Columbia. One is an Olympic athlete, one is on his way to the Culinary Institute of America in New York, one to the Air Force, one to Italy to study, and several are headed to art schools and beauty schools.
