Andrew Forrest is the epitome of the intelligent, diligent and well-rounded student. His inquisitive nature and insatiable thirst for knowledge have not gone unsatisfied throughout his high school years. These qualities, combined with mature thinking and intellectual curiosity, not only led to a flawless transcript with a 4.0 G.P.A., but a plethora of academic awards and recognition as well.

Andrew has spent a considerable amount of time conducting social science research exploring the factors that contribute to the political efficacy of high school students. This exceptional research recently crowned him an Intel Science Talent Search Semi-Finalist. It also came as no surprise when his stellar PSAT scores qualified him as a National Merit Finalist.

Andrew's extra-curricular profile is also outstanding. He is also a phenomenal orator and has received numerous accolades for his endeavors. His role as president of Model Congress has led to countless victories at national competitions including Princeton Model Congress. He has also served as an executive board member for both the Forensics Team and National Honor Society. He is the Psychology Club's research officer and the editorial columnist for The Hilltop Beacon, the high school newspaper.

This young scholar has had an amazing high school career and is looking forward to continued success in the future at Williams College.

Jeremy Grant's talents are abundant, beginning with his stellar academic career. While he excels in math and science, humanities and the social sciences are strengths as well.

Jeremy's passion for knowledge far exceeds the boundaries of a classroom, and his love for learning has constantly brought him to places that most students his age do not venture. His class schedule was so rigorous that it was a true feat for him to have been so heavily involved in his activities at the high school and in the community.

His activities outside the classroom cover a broad spectrum ranging from volunteer work and leadership activities, to athletic and social science interests. Jeremy takes great pride in his many influential roles at Roslyn High School, including his position as captain of the Mock Trial team.

When he isn't feverishly arguing a case, Jeremy is busy controlling the court as captain and point guard on the varsity basketball team or giving presentations to youngsters about informed decision making on the Peer Aids Committee. Among his athletic accomplishments, Jeremy was a News 12 Scholar Athlete, a Gatorade "Will to Win" Athlete and a high school Heisman Trophy winner. Jeremy's well-honed writing skills, as well as his indispensable leadership qualities are what landed him the coveted position of editor-in-chief of The Hilltop Beacon.

Jeremy will no doubt continue his successes at The Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania.

Christina Tu is a scholar in the true sense of the word and has been held in the highest esteem by both faculty and peers during her four years at Roslyn High School.

Among her many achievements are that of being a National Merit Finalist, taking first place and Best in Category in the Long Island Science and Engineering Fair and third place in the Behavioral and Science Category at the International Science and Engineering Fair. As a junior she was awarded the prestigious Rensselaer Scholarship Medal.

Character as well as scholarship defines Christina. It is a reflection of her outstanding character that she was selected to be a member of The Principal's Advisory Council for Preventing Prejudice as well as the Emerging Leaders Institution. An outstanding tennis player, Christina will join the tennis team this fall when she enters The Cooper Union where she will undoubtedly continue on her remarkable path of excellence.
