The 2023 Summa Cum Laude Banquet was incredible this evening! Each senior who achieved a 4.0 or higher GPA for their high school career honored a special educator this evening. Students spoke with gratitude about the blessing of their empathy, kindness, grace and patience. They talked about challenges and hardships, but also opportunities and successes. Students thanked their teachers and coaches for their life-changing impact, heart-transforming pride and hope-inducing belief in them as people.
