RB High’s top grads are headed to Duke BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK Rancho Bernardo High School’s two top graduates are both headed to Duke University in the fall. During their commencement ceremony on June 8, Bryant Huang was announced as the Class of 2017’s valedictorian, having earned a 4.6889 GPA. Mark Kang was named salutatorian with a 4.6818 GPA. Huang said he plans to study economics and possibly computer science at Duke, while Kang said he wants to major in economics and public policy. “I started looking a lot online about economics out of curiosity about the recession,” Huang said. “I really got into how money works and would like a business and finance career.” Huang added that he is interested in being an entrepreneur or getting involved in a start-up business, which is why he is also interested in studying computer science. Kang said he is interested in two possible

career routes, something in business and finance or government legislative work. “Those are the two career options I’d like to explore,” he said. Both were very busy at RB High and participated in some of the same activities. Kang said early in their senior year they started a new club, the Mentors of RBHS, which matched small groups of upperclassmen with underclassmen in order to provide advice and mentorship. “Coming into high school is very daunting, so we wanted to ease (the transition) for those coming from middle school,” Kang said. Both were also peer counselors and in the Best Buddies program. Huang said he also played piano, was on the volleyball team and in several organizations, including National Honor Society and Bronco Ambassadors. Kang said he was also in the California SEE GRADS, A12
