In the past few week, our nondescript public school has had

  1. A former student selected early in the second round of the WNBA draft, and 2. Had a former student accepted at Harvard with a full ride.

That’s much better news than I had thought when I read the title.

It’s neat how your school keeps up with former students’ prospects. My high school was remarkably similar in that respect.

I know! Given what is happening in schools these days, I had to hold my breath. LOL

Our gym is named after a former student who played AAA baseball. I can’t even remember his name at the moment. That’s all I’ve got. :flushed:

In the few years before I arrived, my high school had students who became an Olympic athlete/pro football player, a Pulitzer Prize-winning poet, and a rock star. I don’t think that an equivalent confluence ever happened before or since at the school. The universe just throws crazy stuff at you every once in a while.
