Angelina’s dedication to academics and her continued effort in learning is evident through her membership in the National Junior Honor Society. Angelina shows her school spirit by playing volleyball for the Cairo Durham Girls Volleyball team.
Outside of school, Angelina enjoys hanging out with her friends and animals. She is also proud of how she has matured and improved with school this year.
Beyond her academic pursuits and looking toward the future, Angelina plans to go to college to be a vet tech. One interesting fact about Angelina is that she loves pigs. Cairo-Durham High School is proud to honor students like Angelina, who set a good example for all of our students!
