He covers a lot of ground. During The Westminster Schools’ re cent graduation, Joe was named co-vale- dictorian, meaning he attained the high est grade-point average among the boys graduating this year. He earned that GPA while engaged in a number of after-school activities, ranging from running a student news paper to running competitively as part of the track team. He was captain of the cross-country team, a sport he says he was drawn to as a discipline of the mind. “I like running cross country because of the mental struggle that it presents,” he said As co-editor of the student newspa per, the Westminster Bi-Line, Joe collab orated with other student editors to as sign articles to others on the staff, edit and publish them. He started working for the paper during his freshman year. Another creative aspect of his high school life involves studying and mak ing art. Joe was also an editor for Em bryo, a publication put together by group of students who meet and critique art works submitted by members of the Westminster student body. An Advanced Placement class in two- dimensional art studies developed Joe’s interest in books and the world they cre ate. He decided to focus on the distinc tion between reality and fantasy. Using book jackets, Joe created landscapes and images with different layers. As a Young Democrat and a member of the school’s Model United Nations program, Joe debated political issues. Throughout the year, he met with class mates to debate the country’s healthcare needs or compare the fiscal plans pre sented by candidates Barack Obama and Mitt Romney. Now, Joe wants to fly airplanes. He has been working since his soph omore year to earn his flying license and hopes to receive it this summer. To get a license, he must learn how to fly a plane in both good and bad weather, know air traffic laws, and learn how to navigate a plane without using a GPS. That should help him cover even more ground. that’s Next: Joe plans on attending Princeton University in the fall. Tins article was reported and written by Sierra Middleton, a student at Mount Vernon Presbyterian School.
