My name is Aidan Dsouza, and if you haven’ t heard I’ m the Valedictorian for the Frankston High School Class of 2025. A little background about me is that I’ ve been going to Frankston since Pre-K, I love playing video games, and I’ m a big band kid. At school I’ ve competed and participated in several activities such as Band, Academic UIL, Esports, and more. Additionally, I’ ve been in Frankston’ s dual credit program since my freshman year, thanks to which I will be graduating high school with my associates degree. Through this dual credit program I have taken almost 80 credit hours of classes and will be graduating with a 4.0 college GPA with Trinity Valley Community College. Alongside this I have achieved a highschool GPA of 4.234, which of course has led me to become Valedictorian, but also enabled me to be a part of the National Honor Society, I have worked extremely hard for all of these accomplishments and many more, during my highschool career. Despite many financial barriers and other seemingly impossible challenges, I have proved time and time again that I determine my limits and no one else, and that is something I am extremely proud to have learned at my age. Immediately Following High School, I will be serving in the Airforce National Guard, joining the military to work part-time and after I get out of basic training and tech school I plan to further my education with an online college / trade school program paid for by my highschool accolades and military benefits. In the Air National Guard I will be trained to work in cyber security, and with my military training along with my future secondary education, I plan to get a civilian career in video game design or cybersecurity.
My name is Addi Loebig and I am the Salutatorian of my class at Frankston High School! I am the daughter of Ashton McCoy and Steven Loebig. I have participated in many extracurricular activities during my high school career. I played 3 years of varsity volleyball, 4 years of varsity softball and served as the varsity basketball manager for 3 years. I am also a member of PALS leadership group, FCA, NHS, FFA and am involved with our floral design program where I earned a level 1 certification through the Texas State Floral Association. In addition to that I am a dual credit student at Trinity Valley Community College and will be graduating from there May 16 having completed 86 credit hours. Aside from school and sports, I work part time at Lil’ Indians Daycare and I love my job! I also enjoy spending time with my friends and family and shopping for any and everything. After high school graduation I will be attending the University of North Texas and majoring in Psychology. I recently received the Terry Scholarship through the Terry Foundation to attend UNT. I hope to pursue a career as a Licensed Professional Counselor in the future. I am thankful for my time at FISD and am excited to begin my new chapter at UNT!
