Audrey Burr was named Valedictorian, while Glenda Afari-Kwarteng earned the distinction of Salutatorian.
“Attending Sconzo has given me the resources and skills to excel in college. Our mandatory AVID classes have helped me stay organized and on top of college and scholarship applications; physically going to classes at Lonestar Kingwood has helped me form critical time management skills so I can balance studying and other responsibilities,” Burr said. “Our small school community has helped me grow in confidence through leadership positions and a collaborative class culture. Because I went to Sconzo, I am more equipped for college now than I have ever been.”
Afari-Kwarteng added: “The teachers within Humble ISD provided me with the support, encouragement, and guidance I needed to become the best academic version of myself. They challenged me to work harder, stay motivated, and believe in my abilities even during moments when I doubted myself. Because of their dedication, I developed strong study habits, confidence, and a mindset focused on growth and perseverance.
“As I move on to the next chapter of my life, I plan to carry those lessons and that mentality with me. Humble ISD has taught me the importance of adaptability, determination, and taking advantage of every opportunity to learn and improve. I am grateful for the experiences and people who helped shape me into the person and student I am today.”
