MMHS Spotlight - Abby Taylor and Emma Hill

Submitted by tyler.lewis on

Being the school valedictorian or salutatorian is a huge honor. This year our valedictorian is Abby Taylor and our salutatorian is Emma Hill. To choose the two positions, it is traditionally based off of GPA and total credits taken. Sometimes it is also based off of co-curricular and extracurricular activities they have been a part of. Both were members of the cross-country team, Abby in her junior year and Emma this past year. Both students worked extremely hard not only this year, but all their years at MMHS.

Caroline Hickey -- Vocal Performance
School: Maple Mountain High School
Parents: Emily Hickey and John Hickey
Hometown: Mapleton

"I get great joy from teaching others and plan to teach vocal performance to my future children and others in the community. I also find that when I teach and share with others, I learn from those I teach. Just as Disney puts it wonderfully in the song 'Son of Man,' 'In learning you will teach, and in teaching you will learn.'
