From the Class of 2020 valedictorian


Ashleigh Grace Smith, on how K-12 has prepared her for the years ahead:


"Every year, from kindergarten all the way up until senior year, has had an impact on my future. I have met so many lifelong friends, and I have made endless memories, but I am very thankful for one specific opportunity. In Lexington School District Two, both high schools' students have the opportunity to take college classes at Midlands Tech. Because of this, I will be attending Anderson University as a sophomore and will be able to complete their nursing program early. This is allowing me to go right into nurse practitioner school and get started in my career early. I’m very thankful for each teacher and staff member at Lex2 for their help in preparing me for this next journey!"

 

Memorable words from the Valedictorian's speech:

“Our class is resilient. We were born during 9/11, and we are graduating during a pandemic.”

 

“When this world catches you off guard, and fogs your vision, remember that you have already lived through some unprecedented and traumatic events, and you can and will bounce back.”
