Were You in the Top Ten in Your Graduating Class?

Ain't that the truth... quite a few of our 'Mostly Likely To Succeed' students, well some of them are coming up "short" in the real world!

I was in the Top 10% and NJHS. We were given special medals to wear with our Honor cords at graduation.

I was 5 out of 200+ students (gotta think back to 1998)...I had a 3.7 and the top ten sat on stage for graduation. It's amazing how we think we have everything figured out at 17 or 18. I looked at my senior scrapbook the other day and wondered what was I thinking? LOL!!
