Awesome to hear about this bright and inspirational young lady. Awesome also to hear how she found a unique path to customize her education through a variety of options available to her in our community.

Congratulations to Sahana! She sounds like a bright, balanced young lady, I'm sure she will go far! Good luck in the competition and enjoy!!

I wish we had more flexibility in our schools to allow students like this to blossom without leaving school or forcing them to take classes they will never need or use just to fulfill requirements... My son would love to skip the Voc Ed, Visual/Performing Art, Living Skills and PE requirements to take more math and science (he would also like to skip English, but he will need the writing skills).

Your uncle is very proud of you. He has told us all about you at the office. Sahana, you sound like a very bright, yet humble person. Keep it that way. Good luck in Washington DC! We are all "rooting for you"!
