Kimbrly Kerr
Kymberly Kerr wants to help others and truly enjoys doing so. She strives to
accomplish her personal goals using perseverance and to grow as an individual by
being a life-long learner. Kym is a determined young lady. Kym sustains a solid
A- average, ranks in the top 30 of her class, was named to high honors and honor
roll, and challenges herself academically with AP and honors level courses. She
is interested in pursuing a career in nursing, which matches her values and
philosophy of supporting others and furthering her education. While Kym has
showed excellence in her academics, it is her contributions to the culture at
Uxbridge High School that are equally remarkable. As the vice president for the
Class of 2010 and the National Honor Society, Kym has been leading her peers in
activities, fundraisers and spirit since her freshman year. Her positive actions
certainly support the positive and supportive words that both faculty and
classmates have for her. Kym is an active participant in the Student Council
participating in numerous community service opportunities including the ABC Fair
at Taft Elementary School and the Uxbridge Senior Center. When Kym is not
studying or supporting a noble cause, she is found on the field hockey field, on
the cheerleading squad, or participating in track. Her athletic versatility has
assisted her field hockey team to districts, track team to SWCL titles and
cheering squad to state competitions. Her peers elected her field hockey
co-captain; she received the sportsmanship award in cheerleading; and she has
been named as a member of the UCA All-American Cheerleading Squad, where she
will be attending the 2010 London Tour in December. Kym is a true leader in
every meaning of the word. She brings brightness, joy, a sense of wonder and
consideration to everything in which she is involved. Uxbridge High School is
fortunate to have a Kymberly as a member of the Class of 2010.
Dennis
Flores
Dennis Flores came to Uxbridge High School from Florida as a sophomore and has
been an industrious, respectful and intelligent member of the class of 2010. The
discipline he demonstrates with his academics is a teacher’s dream. He is timely
and diligent with his assignments and understands the benefits of asking for
guidance with a research paper or clarifying expectations on a project. Dennis
is an exceptionally hard worker, does not take anything for granted, and sets
high standards not only for himself but, by example, for his peers as well.
Boasting a solid A- average and honor roll status for seven out of eight terms,
Dennis impresses his teachers with his quiet, mature leadership in the
classroom. Dennis takes his school work seriously and knows that his dedication
will lead him to great things after graduation. Dennis finds history extremely
fascinating and is interested in law enforcement or teaching as a career.
Additionally, Dennis has plans to enlist in the Marines after graduation. Dennis
balances his school work with a job and just this year squeezed time in his busy
schedule to join the football team. His abilities and determination on the field
has had an immediate impact with the team. He is highly esteemed by his peers
and teammates as he leads by example and steady perseverance. Born in Brazil,
Dennis possesses honesty, steadfastness and respect, all values with which he
was raised. He likes to make people laugh and says he’s enjoyed his high school
years. Dennis has made a nice transition to Uxbridge and we are privileged to
have met and interacted with this impressive young man, in the classroom,
lunchroom, halls, and the playing field.
