Congratulations to these extraordinary students who represent the best of the future of innovation and leadership! Many of these students balance challenging Honors and Accelerated classes, extracurricular activities, and consistently maintain high honor roll status.
As their club advisor, Ms. Fisk states “By default, [these students] learn problem-solving, critical thinking, become more independent, practice time management, discover that hard work and effort are worth the investment, and learn that even giving 100% may not be enough to secure first place.”
Well done, team!
