Valley Valedictorians

Each year, the best and brightest high school graduates from the San Fernando, Santa Clarita and Antelope valleys are honored as valedictorians. The variety of criteria schools used to choose the students produced up to 46 honorees in some cases. Some, pictured below, share their thoughts as they embark on their next journey. Included in the list are the student’s home, grade point average and college he or she will attend.

Joseph Le

Residence: Canoga Park

School: Cleveland High

GPA: 4.0

College: UC San Diego

Career goal: International business executive

“Part of my motivation comes from my mom who was a scholar herself in Vietnam before she was a refugee. She worked really hard and didn’t have the opportunities I do. She was willing to give up the better part of her life to give my sister and me a good life. Although she has never stressed that I have to pay her back, I feel compelled to pay her back somehow. And the one way I can do that is to work hard and complete my education. I have all of the opportunities here, so I guess that’s not asking so much from me. College and my future is still way ahead of me. It’s just the beginning.�

*

Fadi Amer

Residence: Mission Hills

School: Kennedy High

GPA: 4.149

College: UCLA

Career goal: Political strategist

“High school wasn’t always smooth for me. In the ninth grade, I got in a fight and was transferred to Granada Hills High School for about six weeks. I wasn’t taking school as serious as I should have been and I wanted to prove myself after I came back to Kennedy. That experience made school more important to me, made me appreciate my education. It really changed me. Now, I have sad and happy feelings at the same time. I’m sad because I’m leaving this place I’ve gone to every day. But I’m happy because it’s another step I’ve accomplished. It’s like going on a new journey.�

*

Jennifer Velasco

Residence: North Hollywood

School: Providence High

GPA: 4.605

College: UC Berkeley

Career goal: Undecided, leaning toward the sciences

“I’m excited to go to college, but I’m kind of sad, too. I really enjoyed my four years of high school. Some kids don’t like their high school, but I am sad to be leaving. One of the things I liked the best was the smaller size of the school. You get a lot more attention and you get to know everyone in your class. It’s more like a family. I’ve gotten to develop good relationships with the students and teachers. I think I’ll have some culture shock when I get to Berkeley, but I don’t think I’ll be overwhelmed. My brother goes to UCLA so I’ve been exposed to what it’s like to attend a big college.�

*

Alison J. Kim

Residence: Glendale

School: Glendale High

GPA: 4.53

College: Duke University

Career goal: Something in medicine, possibly a doctor

“I have mixed feelings about leaving high school. For three years, I’ve been working toward the goal of graduating. But now I look back and see freshmen and I know I’ll miss the experience of high school. It kind of breaks my heart. It will be hard to give it up. But I have no regrets. I’ve done a lot of things and accomplished a lot. It’s exciting to try new things. Many people who I’ve talked to say college was the best time of their lives. Some of my friends who have gone to major universities say it’s a very humbling experience to be out in the real world to see students who are better than you.�

*

Karen Morse

Residence: Tarzana

School: Birmingham High

GPA: 4.2

College: UCLA

Career goal: Environmental lawyer and possibly a professional singer

“Going to UCLA is kind of intimidating. Instead of competing where I was at the top of the class, I’ll be more like all the other students at UCLA. A year ago, I injured my shoulder in a swimming accident and then I got in a car accident coming home from physical therapy and injured the other shoulder. I’ll never be able to swim competitively again. Swimming was a huge part of my life. It’s like I had to graduate a year early because I’ve had to leave what I really loved. One good thing that came of it was it allowed me to explore other things, like being on the yearbook staff. I was able to concentrate even more on my studies.�
