Roesch is the valedictorian and Janorschke is the salutatorian of the 2023 graduating class. basketball this year, and I also loved having my dad as a coach. In tennis, I hit 1,000 points this year and made it to the section tournament.” With busy schedules, Roesch and Janorschke found ways to be motivated to reach the top. “I had internal motivation and wanted to be the best version of myself in all that I do,” Roesch said. Roesch also found key ways to succeed. “Turning in all of your school work and assignments on time is important,” Roesch said. “Spend time out of school studying and reviewing, and do not be afraid to ask teachers questions. Also, go out of your comfort zone
and find your interests and passions.” Janorschke, on the other hand, found his motivation through the competitive nature of class rankings. “The moment I saw rankings and how everyone was ranked together, it pushed me to want to be on top,” Janorschke said. Roesch plans on attending SCSU in fall to play basketball for the Huskies and major in biomedical science. She hopes to pursue a career in the medical field. Janorschke is committed to the University of Minnesota to earn a degree in physics, math, engineering or somewhere in the science, technology, engineering and mathematics field.
