Sarah Al Najar is an outstanding senior at Rangeview High School in Aurora, Colorado. Her record of accomplishment is exceptional! In fact, the chair of the Language Arts Department who is also her AP Language & Composition teacher said, “Her writing skills reflect her intellect and show a flair for the English language that is rare in high school students; her literary analyses are easily on par with upper classmen in a university Honors program.” But before you all conclude that writing is Sarah’s forte, you should also know that Sarah has taken a litany of honors science courses in which she has received an A in every single class. Ok, so now you think ok, a writer with potential to also be a doctor, but then you review her honors math courses and you think “aw yes, she was born to be a mathematician!” With a GPA of 4.5, she has received an A in every single high school class she has ever taken! Whether it be AP Calculus, AP Biology, AP Literature, Spanish, the Jazz Ensemble, she has received no less than an A. Even more commendable is her involvement in community service. For four years she has volunteered for 9 Cares Colorado, which is a clothing drive to help those in need. For two years, she has been a tutor for the National Honor Society Chapter with 40 hours of service. And she organized a community blood drive this past fall with a record of 54 units of blood donated. Her teacher says, “Sarah is the quiet force behind the scene, leading and motivating others. If you do not know her, you might overlook her, missing out on the opportunity to know a truly exceptional young women. She is not the actor at center stage; She is the rock behind the scenes who makes the production a success. Sarah will be attending Colorado State University in the fall and plans to major in pre-medicine.
