Brandon Lopez
As a high school student I have always struggled in school and with doing my school work. However, art has always been an interest of mine. I love to sit down and be able to create something that comes straight out of my imagination. I plan to keep making art for the rest of my life. In the fall I am planning on attending Penland school of Crafts. I would like to pursue a career in wood working.
Samantha Lichtner
I am currently a junior and am very active in and out of school. I play on the high school softball team and also am involved in FFA. This year I took an internship at the Honey Brook Courthouse. In April of 2012, I received intern of the month. I have chosen to further my education at Mt. Saint Mary’s University in Maryland. I plan to get my degree in criminal justice and one day go into the FBI.
Jared Weidner
I am 18 years old and a senior at Twin Valley High School. While in high school I have taken multiple honors classes along with AP Statistics and Psychology. I have also taken all visual media classes, animation, and Art I through III, while maintaining a GPA of 3.5 or above. The sports I have played are football and track. In track, I was awarded Most Improved and he Coach’s award. After graduation, I plan on attending Cabrini College in the fall and majoring in graphic design.
Jared Price
I play baseball for Twin Valley High School. When coach Royer came to Twin Valley my freshman year, I knew that our team was going to be great. With his help, I got invited to a try out for the USA team which was held in Carry, NC. Only 144 kids were invited and after one week they cut it down to 40 kids. I was lucky enough to make the cut and stay for another glorious week. Unfortunately I did not make the 2nd round cut but it was an accomplishment to make the top 40 and is still one of my greatest baseball memories. Also, I made all berks and all region for school ball.
