"Alexa's time at Palm City Elementary School (VPK), Citrus Grove Elementary School (K-5th), Hidden Oaks Middle School & Jensen Beach High School has truly flown," proud mom Danette shared. "With hard work, perseverance and determination, she excelled academically taking AP and Dual Enrollment classes. Participating in a wide range of academic and extracurricular organizations, she served as Treasurer of the National English Honor Society, Co-Founder and Co-President of Rho Kappa, and was a member of the National Honor Society, Math, Science, Spanish, and Thespian Honor Societies, as well as the Student Government Association."
"Alexa would like to thank three teachers who have had a meaningful impact on her life: Natalie Martin (2nd and 3rd grades), Brook Duchene (Pre-Ap English I & National Honor Society) & Samantha Parkhurst (AP US History and SGA). You will always hold a special place in her heart. We are immensely proud of Alexa as she begins the next chapter of her life at the University of Miami, Miami Herbert Business School. The Hurricanes are lucky to have you Lex. Always reach for the stars, continue to shine, and be true to yourself. We love you so very much, Momma, Poppa, Nick and Lulu."

🌟CELEBRATING A YEAR OF GROWTH🌟
From start to finish, our High School High Tech students made this year their own!
To wrap up the 2025–2026 school year, students planned, prepared, and hosted their End-of-Year Brunch, showcasing the teamwork, confidence, leadership, and real-world skills they’ve built throughout the year.
Through HSHT, students explored future pathways with college visits, career experiences, peer mentoring, and hands-on learning that will serve them well long after completing the program. The celebration also included personalized superlatives and certificates, making the day even more meaningful (and full of laughs)!
We’re proud to see these students building the skills, confidence, and independence that will help prepare them for success in school, careers, and life. 💪✨
