Coosa High School student Caitlin “Kenzie” Nguyen was recognized at the Floyd County Schools Board of Education meeting Monday night after she was accepted to Yale University and received a full scholarship.
Superintendent Glenn White spoke proudly of Kenzie’s accomplishments, as well as other Floyd County students who’ve been accepted to other elite universities.
“We’re putting together a billboard of all the students who’ve been accepted to a bunch of prestigious schools,” said White. “Our kids’ test scores are improving, and they’re applying to and getting into some fine schools.”
White mentioned that Floyd County students have been accepted this year to Harvard, Brown, Northwestern and now Yale.
“That’s in addition to the kids who’ve gotten into Auburn, Alabama and the University of Georgia,” said White. “UGA is actually much harder to get into now, especially with the availability of HOPE scholarships.”
