* Ranking as outlined in the Student Handbook: The GPA spread this year was narrow: 4.63 to 4.42. This rank is averaged with two other rankings, the number of As earned and the number of honors courses completed, in order to determine a final ranking of the top ten students. This year there are fourteen students listed in our top ten due to the fact that several students were tied after calculating the ranking.

Congratulations to all of our graduates!
