Girls Rule in Cambridge High's First Graduating Class

A year of firsts has been the norm for Cambridge High School, and today Principal Ed Spurka announced the top two graduating students: valedictorian Casey Moore and salutatorian Rachel Barker.

Spurka said the two students could have chosen to stay for their senior year at Milton High, but instead chose to finish out at Cambridge. That decision was a great one for the school, he said.

Both girls picked AP Biology teacher Brian Jeffrey as their most influential teacher at Cambridge. He said this morning that the two students have challenged him to be a better teacher.

While the top two students were announced today, March 11, it won't be for another month until the official presentation is made at Cambridge High's first honors awards on April 15.
