Graduating with a 9.0 average — based on a scale of 1.00 to 10.00 points — Sharon will attend John Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland in the fall and study liberal arts.
“I’m not real sure what I want to do,” she said with a smile, adding her preference for maths and sciences sway her towards engineering as a career move.
With similar academic preferences, Wakefield’s 1990 saludatorian, Hugues Steinier, also will study maths and sciences at Carienge-Mellon Institute in Pittsburgh, PA, in the fall.
The 18-year-old Belgian-born Culpeper County resident has an 8.7 grade point average. Active in school sports, Hugues was a team member for varsity tennis, soccer and basketball after his entrance into Wakefield in seventh grade.
Hugues hopes to return to Europe after finishing school in the United States and study abroad for a few years before “becoming a sheperd” in England.
“I’m inclined to study sciences and math but I hope to study a bit of everything,” the graduate said.
Musical revue
scores a hit
Music, art, and youth came together in It’s a Small World, a “living travel brochure” featuring the pre-kindergarten through sixth grade classes of Wakefield School. The musical revue depicts a travel agent and a group of students, traveling around the world, with dance and song at each stop.
Sixty speaking parts, costumes from all over the world, clever set design, 160 singers, 30 songs and dances made for a fast-moving, funfilled evening. Music director Bonnie P. Williams was pleased with the enthusiasm shown by the student performers.
