Antwerp is proud to announce that the Class of 2020 will host a virtual graduation ceremony on May 24, 2020 online using the school’s website, ALSTV youtube channel, or the school Facebook page. The following students have been named valedictorian and salutatorian of the Class of 2020 of Antwerp High School.
Alyssa Fuller of Antwerp is the daughter of Trisha Fuller and Jim Fuller. She earned a 4.0 GPA. Alyssa earned Top of Class for the following classes: Spanish I, Chemistry, Algebra II, Geometry, Spanish II, and Biology; GMC Scholar Athlete (2019), and District Seven All Star Volleyball Division IV; All-Academic Team (2019); National Honor Society and Fellowship of Christian Athletes.
She participated in softball, volleyball, and statistician for the football team. During the summer, she worked for the school’s Student Technology Services program and Bowling Green State University Communication Sciences and Disorders. In the future, she plans on working in schools as a speech pathologist.
“I see myself working in a local school as a speech pathologist, while living in Antwerp with my family. I will miss being in such a welcoming and comforting environment, surrounded with people that genuinely care about each other. Being able to go to a K-12 school has allowed me to build relationships with a variety of people, whether it be the students in my own grade, the first graders that I have the privilege to help, or the teachers that are always willing to share advice or a laugh. Having small classes really allowed me to grow closer to so many people in this school, and I will miss everyone in this supportive school greatly.”
Madison Boesch of Cecil, OH is the daughter of Jim and Laura Boesch. She earned a 3.987 GPA, honor roll all through high school, honor’s diploma, and top of class in English freshman, sophomore, and junior year. Madison participated in FCA, Yearbook, Quill and Scroll, National Honor Society Volleyball, Theater, and Show Choir. She is employed at the Root Beer Stand.
Madison plans to attend Ohio University and major in Nursing.
“I plan to work as a registered nurse and maybe even sign with a traveling program to work in places that need extra help. I want to eventually go back to school to either become a nurse practitioner or pediatrician. In ten years, I see myself with a family. I see myself with a steady career as a nurse and paying off my student loan debts. I will miss the close-knit community that the school provided me. I knew that no matter what, I could get the help I needed whether it be from a friend or a staff member.”
Blake Schuette of Antwerp is the son of Shawn and Sara Schuette. He earned a 3.9875 GPA, was named Top Student for Modern World History and Spanish I, was on Honor Roll, held a Gold pride card, Academic A Club member, Green Meadows Conference Scholar Athlete, earned the Rotary Award, and Academic All District VII Basketball. Blake was a member of the National Honor Society, Student Council, Fellowship of Christian Athletes, and Mount Calvary youth group. He participated in football, basketball, and baseball.
“I worked on Antwerp’s Student Technology Services team throughout high school. I will be attending the University of Findlay and majoring in biology. After my undergraduate studies I will go on to more schooling to become an optometrist. In ten years, I hope to be back in the area practicing as an optometrist. The thing I will miss most about going to Antwerp are all of the relationships I have built. The community support that the entire town, teachers, and coaches have given all of the teams I have been a part of over my four years is something incredible. I am so grateful to have such great people surrounding me for the first steps of my life, I will really miss all of their support.”
