SJP Class of 2020 Graduate Named New Rochelle HS 2024 Valedictorian
Valedictorian Eileen Weisner was named a National Merit semifinalist in September, putting her among the top students in the nation. Last year, she received the Yale Book Award from the Yale Westchester Alumni Association for high academic achievement, upright character, and demonstrated leadership ability.
Eileen attended a small private middle school and chose to attend New Rochelle High School over a private high school.
“While COVID put a damper on my freshman year, I'm glad I chose to come here. I'm continually impressed by the breadth of classes available, and very satisfied with the level of education. All my teachers have been engaging and supportive, and so have my classmates.”
“I'd especially like to thank Ms. (Carmen) Glenn, who was a calming presence during my hectic junior year,” she said, adding a shout out to Ms. Glenn who teaches AP Environmental Science, “Thanks for continuing to lend me your ear (and your room)!”
A talented athlete, Eileen has been a member of the varsity softball team since freshman year and plays singles on the varsity tennis team. During the summers, she teaches sailing to kids.
She is president of the high school’s Book Club and vice president of the National English Honor Society and is a member of the Social Studies Honor Society and the high school’s Envirothon chapter, an academic competition club. She was on the Envirothon team that won the regional award for Aquatic Ecology last year. Eileen has been teaching religious education in her parish on Sundays for the past five years.
In her free time, she enjoys reading, crocheting, and watching Jeopardy and MLB games.
Eileen has yet to settle on a college of choice but plans to major in the humanities and then attend graduate school for law or business.
“I’d also like to give a shout out to my parents,” she said. “Especially my mom: thank you for your love and endless encouragement! None of this would've been possible without you.”
