A Note about the Grad Valedictorian:
The Valedictorian will be the last speaker at the ceremony in the park. By Highwood tradition, the Valedictorian is chosen as follows. The top 3 academic students (who are interested) based on Core classes will be asked to give a speech in front of the grads and the staff at Highwood. The grads and staff will then vote on who they would like to be their valedictorian. In the case that some of the top 3 do not want to be Valedictorian, we will go down the list of top academic students until we have 3 who will speak.
