“These young people have exhibited a strong work ethic and a high regard for education,” said Superintendent Blondean Y. Davis. “They have wonderful academic records and the same GPA. How could we possibly only choose one to address the graduation class? To have each of them serve as salutatorian is the perfect solution. This was a good problem to have.”
