Graduation for one | Minotdailynews
NEWBURG ? Shyane Myers is the class valedictorian at Newburg United High School. She?s also in the middle and at the very bottom of the class ranking. Myers is the only graduate of the class of 2008.
It wasn?t always that way. There were two members of the class until last fall, when her only classmate decided to enroll at Glenburn High School for the sake of its drama program. Other classes at Newburg High have as many as seven or eight students.
She likes the one-on-one attention she gets in her classes, but said there are several drawbacks to being the only student in the senior class, like when she?s sitting all alone in a classroom and has no other students to talk to.
