CONGRATULATIONS TO THE CLASS OF 2021

“Go forth and remember all you have learned here. Then, come back and share with us everything you have seen. Archbishop Mitty will always be your home.” – Latanya (Johnson ’92) Hilton, AMHS President

Each year, during graduation, five seniors are presented with special awards. We are pleased to introduce the recipients from the Class of 2021.

VALEDICTORIAN AKHILESH BALASINGAM

Each year, the valedictorian gives a speech to classmates the morning of graduation. This year, our valedictorian is Akhilesh Balasingham, a genuine scholar with a wide array of intellectual interests. In four years at Mitty, Akhilesh achieved a 4.71 grade point average while taking 12 Advanced Placement courses. In every class he has taken at Mitty, he never received a grade lower than “A.” He has been named an undergraduate award winner in chemistry, biology, literature, world history, and newspaper. In addition to this, Akhilesh is a National Merit Finalist.

Over the past three years, Akhilesh has also excelled in research, completing projects with increasing complexity, working closely with a research group in the Electrical Engineering Department at Stanford University, and winning acclaim at science competitions at the county, state, and international levels. His recent entry into the California State Science Fair was named the Project of the Year, making it the single best high school project out of about 400 finalists from across the state and earning him a spot in the International Science and Engineering Fair. Akhilesh is the first student in school history to receive this recognition. In addition to this, he was named a top 40 finalist in the prestigious Regeneron Science Talent Search and was recognized with a $25,000 scholarship award.

In his “spare” time, Akhilesh helps others. He is a Certified Ham Radio Operator and a member of the Saratoga Amateur Radio Association, which assists in disaster recovery situations. Akhilesh is also the lead curriculum developer for the non-profit organization Curieus. This group of dedicated high school students works to disseminate STEM knowledge to elementary and middle school students in underserved communities in the Bay Area and nationwide. Akhilesh will be attending Stanford University in the fall.

SALUTATORIAN ANISH AGRAWAL

Each year, the salutatorian has the honor of delivering a welcome speech to classmates. This year, our salutatorian is Anish Agrawal, a scholar who clearly loves learning. In his four years at Mitty, he has achieved a GPA of 4.72 with “A’s” in 13 different AP classes, including Calculus BC, which he took as a freshman! He has also received the departmental certificate in math, recognizing him as one of the most-accomplished math students all four years of high school.

Anish’s interest in engineering continues to be a boon to the school and community. He has undertaken a variety of leadership roles with the campus Robotics Program, including serving as the group’s co-president this year. Anish also serves as an officer for the Stocks and Finance Club. Off campus, Anish has interned at the TechShop in San Francisco. He also has been an intern at Mojo Vision, where he worked with a group to build an augmented reality contact lens embedded with a screen. Finally, Anish is the co-founder of the 501(c) non-profit Teach Seniors Technology.

In the early days of the pandemic, Anish got to work addressing the needs prompted by the health crisis. Using his skills with the 3D printer and partnering with Nexus, Anish produced more than 1,000 face masks for medical professionals. In addition to this, he created a face shield that can be folded and stored in one’s wallet. Anish will be attending the University of Pennsylvania in the fall.

THE ROMERO AWARD CONNOR MARTIN

The Romero Award, named for the former Salvadoran Archbishop who fought for social justice, draws attention to the core mission of Archbishop Mitty High School by recognizing a senior who is deeply committed to the Campus Ministry program. The recipient of the award delivers a reflection at the Baccalaureate Mass.

Connor Martin is our award winner this year and has proved himself to be a tremendously well-rounded student who is an incredible leader: insightful, analytical, organized, mission-driven, collaborative, and compassionate. Over the past four years, Connor has been a member and president of the Mitty Advocacy Project, a student-led program that engages in legislative advocacy, grassroots awareness projects, and community education on social justice issues. In his role as president, he has played an integral part in MAP’s efforts to make this a more just and humane world.

Connor’s leadership abilities have been on display as he is able to act with decisiveness, as well as compassion. He led the MAP Steering Committee in implementing their Black Lives Matter amplify campaign online, inspiring more than 150 MAP members to participate in weekly meetings, create digital awareness campaigns, organize guest speakers, and show up in record numbers for virtual town hall meetings with local candidates. Rather than see the limitations this year brought, Connor looked for opportunities and found an array of ways to engage his peers in advocacy. He will be attending Georgetown University in the fall.

The Archbishop Mitty High School Board of Regents honors one young woman and one young man each year at graduation in recognition of overall achievement. The presentation of the Regents Award for the outstanding female and male student will be made by the President of the Archbishop Mitty High School Board of Regents, Mr. Johnny Gilmore.

ZURI WILSON

OUTSTANDING FEMALE STUDENT COLETON WALKER

OUTSTANDING MALE STUDENT

Zuri Wilson is a truly remarkable young woman who has excelled in a wide variety of ways while a student here at Archbishop Mitty. She is an outstanding student, who undertook a rigorous academic schedule during her time here. She is an engaged, insightful, and collaborative student, who adds greatly to any classroom setting.

Zuri’s success is in no way limited to the classroom. She has been a member of the speech and debate program and the sketch comedy team. She has been a performer both on stage and in our virtual theater productions this year. In addition to that, Zuri has been a member of the Life Corps Team, a retreat leader, an all-school assembly speaker, the president of the Black Student Union, as well as a member of the Girl Scouts of America. Zuri’s diverse involvement across campus made her a standout as an admissions ambassador, where she spoke to countless prospective families as a Visit Mitty host and an Open House tour leader.

But perhaps Zuri’s most noteworthy contribution to the Archbishop Mitty community is her innate ability to approach all that she does and all whom she meets with kindness and positivity. Mr. Santana has noted that this year’s recipient is “a first-class young woman who leads by example and genuinely cares about her peers and our community.” She will be sharing her incredible gifts at the University of California, Santa Barbara next year. Coleton Walker is a young man who has definitely made his mark on the Archbishop Mitty community. He has involved himself in a wide variety of programs from athletics to campus ministry to student government. He has proven himself in the classroom, taking a rigorous college preparatory course of study. His teachers fully appreciate his insightful and enthusiastic contributions to every class.

Over his four years, Coleton has immersed himself in all things Mitty. As a member of the LIFE Corps campus ministry leadership team, he led a senior Kairos retreat. He is also a two-year member of the men’s varsity volleyball team, a fouryear member of The Pit, and a three-year participant in student government. His love for Mitty and his knowledge of so many different programs made him a true asset to the Admissions Office. Mrs. Wesmiller notes that “he is always the first person to walk up and welcome guests and to help anyone who has a question.”

Perhaps most notably, Coleton is a well-respected leader on campus. He is often the first in the door to begin planning an event and the last out the door after clean up has happened. According to Mr. Greg Walker “his actions, more than his words, reflect his love for all things Mitty.” He will be attending the University of Iowa in the fall.

Members of the Class of 2021 decorated their cars with paint, balloons, and signs, and drove past the front of the school on Saturday, May 22nd, in Archbishop Mitty High School’s second annual car parade. Some Monarchs proudly wore their caps and gowns while others sported sweatshirts announcing where they will attend school next year. On the sidelines, teachers, administrators, and staff cheered on the graduating seniors and celebrated their next steps.
