Senior Spotlight! Today we celebrate our 2019 Valedictorian, Sydney! Here's a note from her mom:

I would like to introduce Sydney. She was Bethany’s class valedictorian for 2019 and currently a Senior at Bolingbrook High School. During her time at BHS, she has been recognized academically as one of the top 20 students of her class each year. Sydney is an Ambassador Girl Scout, holds a command staff position on BHS’s Air Force Junior ROTC, and an Illinois state scholar. As a member of the National Honor, the World Language Honor, and the AFJROTC’s Kitty Hawk Honor Societies, she has earned hundreds of volunteer service hours. Most recently, Sydney tested for, and has earned a seal of biliteracy in French. She has also figure skated since age 7 and has earned USFSA the highest testing awards in Moves in the field, Ice Dance, and Solo Free Dance.

Sydney has accepted an offer from Lewis University. She will be studying Chemistry with plans for advanced degrees in the future. As a parent, I witness daily the Christian principals and values she learned during her Lutheran education at Bethany. We are both grateful 8 years spent at Bethany.

Sydney, you continue to amaze us with your grace and grit! We couldn't be more proud of everything you've accomplished these past years and we will pray for your continued blessings in Jesus' name!
