Spotlight on Academics Highland School Sends Off Class of 2014 (continued from page 9) Mr. Berg then introduced Mimi Robinson ‘14, Highland’s Salutatorian, who is attending the University of Virginia in Charlottesville this Fall. “Trying to define the Class of 2014 is impossible, but I believe we will be remembered for our fortitude and compassion,” Ms. Robinson reflected in her remarks. “This class has weathered more together than many people do in their entire lives. We have suffered unfathomable loss… loss of relatives, loss of parents, and most recently, the loss of Finley.” (more on the legacy of Finley Broaddus can be found on page 28) “In spite of and throughout the tumult of this year, we are making it through because, like Finley taught us, our time should be spent advocating for what we’re passionate about, while deeply caring for the lives we encounter.” Ms. Robinson then introduced Highland’s Valedictorian, Colby Newson ‘14, who is attending Duke University in Durham, North Carolina. After taking the obligatory “selfie” with her cell phone in front of the assembled students, families, faculty, and staff, Ms. Newson presented her own assessment of the Class of 2014 and her experiences at Highland School. “One of my favorite authors, John Green, reflected, the hero’s journey is not the voyage from weakness to strength,” said Ms. Newson. “The true hero’s journey is the voyage from strength to weakness, and I don’t think this could be truer for us, the Class of 2014.” “Our journey through high school has been christened by adversity and heartbreak,” Ms. Newson concluded. “Now, we are delivered onto a future that only we hold the reins for.” Highland’s Middle School Graduates Recognized Highland School would like to recognize those eighth grade students who earned Academic Honors for each semester of all four years they were in Highland’s Middle School.
