He consistently demonstrates a strong commitment to his academics and balances the demands of the basketball program with success in the classroom.

Scholar of the Week
"The Scholar of the Week for the English Department is Seravin Huang. Not only does Sera have an easy going and fun personality and awesome character, but she is also a hard-working individual who strives to improve and excel in her writing skills. In AP Lang, Sera would participate frequently in class and that has continued into AP Lit. She never hesitates to share her analysis and interpretation or volunteer to read in class. If practice writing is done in class, Sera will always have a thesis statement for me to review and that is just one of many reasons I have seen such growth in her. I am so glad to have Sera again this year and see her growth both academically and socially."

Belen Perez nominated her Advanced Nutrition teacher. Ms. Stella. "Belen has consistently demonstrated exceptional performance in our Advanced Nutrition course, showcasing both her deep understanding of the material and her ability to apply complex concepts to real-world scenarios. Her professionalism in class is evident through her respectful attitude towards both peers and staff, and she consistently contributes insightful comments during discussions. Belen excels in time management, often completing assignments ahead of deadlines while balancing the demands of the course with extracurricular commitments. Her ability to prioritize tasks and maintain a high level of organization has been a key factor in her success, and she continues to be a positive role model for her classmates."
