FRESNO, Calif. — Arthur Mkoyan, the Bullard High School valedictorian who may be deported to Armenia this month, is counting on letters of support from across the state and nation to help him.

Arthur, 17, of Fresno, Calif., pleaded to classmates, friends and teachers at his hometown Bullard High School on Friday to write letters to Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein encouraging her to introduce legislation that would enable him and his parents to stay in the United States.

Friday was his last day of class at the school. Arthur will graduate Tuesday at the Save Mart Center.
