New Rochelle High School by Gay Rosen
I have been attending the Awards Ceremony at the New Rochelle High School for the past 8 years now, and while I have been posting a blog each year listing the colleges and universities the top 25 students have selected to attend, I have been sorely remiss in posting their other accomplishments… Not only are their grade point averages superlative, but they are such accomplished individuals too….I finally decided that this year, I would list those also… just so you can see how New Rochelle offers a wonderful education, wonderful programs (attached is the 2014-2015 course offerings – worthy of any Junior college), and how well we compare to the neighboring high schools. While I was jotting down their college choices in one hand, I was also filming the event with the other hand… so I apologize for the choppy film. However, you can see and appreciate firsthand just how diverse New Rochelle is, and what makes us the Queen City of the Sound.
