Three years after its doors first opened and some seven years since it was even conceived, Vistamar School in El Segundo has graduated its first senior class. In the Saturday commencement - an understandably short event, there being just 14 grads - the capped-and- gowned outbound Vistamar students were honored and applauded at Oceanside Fellowship Auditorium.

So far, construction crews have brought the entire building up to state education standards and renovated about one-third of the interior at a cost of around $3.8 million. The rest of the warehouse will be developed down the road as the school expands from its current size of about 60 ninth-graders and a handful of 10th-graders to a little less than 400 freshmen, sophomores, juniors and seniors in the years ahead.
