Best tops in his class

The RTD has a piece on a celebration at the Science Museum of Virginia for the 8 RPS valedictorians and gives prominent space to Samuel Best, Armstrong HS valedictorian. His message to his 4 younger siblings:

“I tell them to try to exceed in everything,” he said. “I want them to be at the top.”

    Congrats to the young man!

    We hear so many negative stories about our youth, It’s nice to read good news. I love how he said “it took hard work”

    via RPS:

    LeAnne Le ranked first among the cadets at Franklin Military Academy with a GPA of 4.33. A member of the National Honor Society and the school’s Color Guard, Le earned perfect attendance during her four years of high school. She’ll attend VCU in the fall and plans to become a nurse.

    Best is Armstrong High School’s top senior for 2008. A member of the National Honor Society, FBLA and marching band, Best posted a 3.94 grade point average. He’ll attend the University of Virginia in the fall and plans to major in biology.

    That is wonderful! What great role models for the east end students. Again congratulations.

    I’m wondering what questions these high ranking students would have for the School Board candidates? I would also like to hear their concerns for the future of RPS and their advice on succeeding in public schools –how to make the most of what is being offered.

    John, maybe you can interview these bright hard working students.
