ATHLETES

SENIOR RECOGNITION VALEDICTORIAN AND NATIONAL MERIT FINALIST The National Merit Scholarship program selects approximately 15,000 Finalists out of 1.5 million juniors (now seniors) nationwide who take the PSAT each year. Out of those Finalists, 2,500 are named National Merit Scholars, and each receives a $2,500 scholarship. The remaining Finalists are considered for college- or corporate-sponsored awards.

NATIONAL MERIT COMMENDED STUDENTS

Valedictorian and National Merit Finalist: Laura Doan

SALUTATORIAN AND NATIONAL MERIT SCHOLAR

The National Merit Scholarship program recognizes students as Commended based on individual PSAT performance against a nationally applied selection index score. Out of approximately 1.5 million juniors (now seniors) nationwide who took the PSAT in 2014, approximately 34,000 received Letters of Commendation.

National Merit Commended Students: Luke Leitzman, Tristan Grecu, Kelly Carroll and Alex Wade

TCU CHANCELLOR’S SCHOLARS

Salutatorian and National Merit Scholar: Eric Getz

NATIONAL HISPANIC RECOGNITION

Texas Christian University’s Chancellor’s Scholars Program selects approximately 100 applicants nationwide each year to undergo the rigorous interview process. In 2015, 65 students were named Chancellor’s Scholars receiving full four-year academic scholarships. Because the program is so selective, it is an honor for a high school to have one senior named a TCU Chancellor’s Scholar. This year, All Saints’ has two.

The College Board’s National Hispanic Recognition Program identifies academically outstanding Hispanic/Latino high school students.

Out of approximately 250,000 Hispanic/Latino juniors (now seniors) nationwide who take the PSAT each year, about 5,000 are recognized as the highest-scoring students.

National Hispanic Recognition Student: Tristan Mercer

TCU Chancellor’s Scholars: Frenki Behaj (top) and Eric Getz (bottom)

SCHOLAR

Baylor University, Communication Sciences and Disorders

University of Texas, Business Honors

Courtney Hammit Courtney Hammit’s smile stands out in a hall filled with All Saints’ students navigating to and from classrooms. She’s busy juggling upper level classes, volleyball and her artwork, yet she always finds time for others. At All Saints’ alone, she serves as a Student Ambassador, helps teachers with projects and events and motivates her friends for the next big milestone. In addition to serving her school, she dedicates herself to her church, volunteering in the community and doing mission work.

Mission trips in high school have included Haiti, Trinidad and Tobago, Nicaragua and Tanzania. It comes as no surprise, then, that Courtney is pursuing a career in service – pediatric speech pathology – and has selected Baylor’s program for Communication Sciences and Disorders to prepare her. Courtney leads with a servant heart and is an inspiration for everyone around her.

Gracie Chambers Photo: Oliver Barth Photography

At eighteen, Gracie Chambers has done more than some have in their careers. The founder, owner and operator of The Fort Clothing Etc.®, Gracie designs and retails apparel that trends locally with national brands such as Southern Tide®. She also owns a graphic design company which serves other apparel operations in the metroplex. And she was a reporter for a local publication in her mid-teens. At All Saints’, Gracie wears just as many hats – from Yearbook Editor and Marketing Intern to Cheer Captain and Student Ambassador. On top of managing a rigorous academic program, which included 15 AP and Honors classes, she makes time to give back to numerous community organizations.

Gracie is a well-rounded, entrepreneurial leader and is looking forward to attending the University of Texas this fall to study in the Business Honors program with an emphasis on marketing.

Anh Ryan Nguyen

Eric Rutledge Photo: Stephanie Davis Studio

Ryan Nguyen became a Saint his freshman year when he and his twin brother, Jeff ’15, moved here from Vietnam. A painter, graphic designer, photographer and drama student, Ryan has built his high school career around his passion for the arts. He has won numerous local art show awards and All Saints’ honors and even provides artistic direction for the rebranding of a clothing line in Vietnam. For his combined Junior Honors Thesis and Senior Project, Ryan created a series of paintings which represents student life in the context of the four elements – fire, earth, water and air. Ryan will study at the Rhode Island School of Design next year with the goal of becoming a professional illustrator.

SERVANTS

Eric Rutledge, ranked 1st in Texas and 5th in the nation for tennis, has signed to play at Wake Forest University this coming fall. Successfully managing upper level coursework and community service hours around an extensive travel schedule for tennis, Eric is a role model for many aspiring athletes. Since last summer, he has played in 15 major tournaments across the nation, including representing Texas at the National Junior Davis Cup and the U.S. National Championships, both of which only accept the top ranking tennis players in Texas. Eric will play competitively at Wake Forest and potentially beyond, but he is also focused on obtaining a degree in business.

ALL SAINTS’ ALUMNI Living the All Saints’ Episcopal School Outcome Statement:

A graduate of All Saints’ Episcopal School will exercise genius within through developing a relationship with God, by engaging the world and by serving others.

“Going into UT from All Saints’, I am thankful for how self-aware I am. Because All Saints’ caters to each individual student, I know my areas of strength as well as some areas where I am not as strong. And that has allowed me to look at my first year of college through a much more mature lens.”

Class of 2014

EMILY TABOR

UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS, SCHOOL OF LIBERAL ARTS HONORS

Emily Tabor, a member of the All Saints’ Class of 2014, recently completed her first year at the University of Texas. Within the highly selective Liberal Arts Honors program, Emily is considering several degree paths including economics,

psychology and advertising. She is a UT cheerleader, a member of the Pi Beta Phi sorority serving on the philanthropy committee and is a member of both the local chapters of Fellowship of Christian Athletes and Campus Crusade for Christ.

“First, I want to congratulate my brother James, graduating with the Class of 2015, for his many accomplishments. I am confident he’ll transition smoothly into college like I did. In my freshman year at USC, I was so well adjusted to the new coursework and schedule that my professors repeatedly asked where I went to high school.”

Class of 2013

ROB SMAT

UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA, SCHOOL OF CINEMATIC ARTS

Rob Smat, a member of the All Saints’ Class of 2013, recently completed his second year in the University of Southern California’s Cinematic Arts Critical Studies program. He is engaging in lectures from Steven Spielberg, Michael Keaton and Duwayne Dunham, is directing film festival-awarded movies

and is seizing opportunities to work alongside and direct professional actors. Rob is also a writer for The Sack of Troy (USC’s Satire Paper), active in leadership of the Caruso Catholic Center and a show runner at KXSC campus radio. Rob is a new member of American Mensa.

“I went into Rice with a strong work ethic and the ability to manage my time extremely well. At All Saints’, I learned to manage a rigorous academic schedule with sports and many other activities.

As the years pass, I become more and more aware of how well prepared I was for college.”

Class of 2012

QUINTON COX

Quinton Cox, a member of the All Saints’ Class of 2012, recently completed his third year at Rice University. Quinton is a Chemical Engineering major and is an undergraduate assistant in a research lab for enhanced oil recovery. He is on the Rice

President’s Honor Roll and last year received the Dwane Rivers Memorial Scholarship for outstanding Chemical Engineering students. Quinton is the Vice President of the Men’s Basketball Club.

RICE UNIVERSITY, SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING

“I still know students at LIM who are timid about asking questions of their professors.

Because the culture at All Saints’ was so warm and open, I never had trouble conversing with my teachers. I gained a tremendous amount of confidence during high school that paved the way for an easy transition into college.”
