By Megan Roche s we enter into June, it’s the time of graduation, prom, and the dreaded college decisions. For three Morristown Beard students, shortly after graduation, they will begin their new adventure, adjusting to life as a plebe at the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, MD. While many of their classmates will be decorating dorm rooms and spending the summer together, these young adults will begin their indoctrination into the United States Naval Academy on June 27, just a few weeks after they walk across the stage on June 8 to consummate their high school careers. George Burke, John Trombetta, and Sarah Williams are excited for the adventures that await during their next four years at the United States Naval Academy. Morristown Beard is the first school in the nation to have three appointments in one year. The Morristown Beard Class of 2019 has 109 students.
“We are extremely proud of George, John and Sarah and all that they have accomplished,” said MBS Headmaster Peter J. Caldwell in a press release. “It’s a direct reflection on the character and engagement of our students and the strength of our academic program here at Morristown-Beard School.” For Burke, Trombetta, and Williams, each are unique in their interests and their ideal career paths at the academy. Burke, who serves as the Class of 2019 President, was captain of the football team, as well as being a member of the track and lacrosse teams. Trombetta, the senior class Treasurer, was a captain of the school’s swim team and is a competitive triathlete who is nationally ranked by USA Triathlon.
