Justin Sommerville, honored as the Rotary Club of Clemmons Student of the Month in March 2024, shows the value of dual enrollment<\/a> at Forsyth Tech. With a GPA of 4.11, Justin has excelled in his high school classes while also taking advanced technology and programming courses at Forsyth Tech.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Sean Sandag, his school counselor, praises Justin’s choice to pursue a course plan that fits his interests. “Justin has taken on some of the toughest courses we offer,” Sandag said. “He is also completing several tech courses at Forsyth Tech that I’ve never seen a student take before.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Justin will graduate with many college credits and tech certifications. “He can show colleges and employers that he has practical skills from his computer and tech courses,” Sandag said. “It’s amazing how he uses these skills to help his community. Justin built the Clemmons Civic Club website from scratch and keeps it running. He also helps the Clemmons Food Pantry and Clemmons Kiwanis by managing their websites.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Sandag also highlighted Justin’s volunteer work. “Justin has given his time freely throughout high school, helping various groups like Trinity Elm Rehab and pitching in at events like the Clemmons Rotary Club’s Hand-in-Hand event,” Sandag said. “As the service chair for the Interact Club at West Forsyth, he is always looking for ways to make a difference in his community. Justin is a caring and talented student with a bright future.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Justin hopes to attend High Point University<\/a> and major in computer engineering, computer science, software development, game design, AI, or cybersecurity. His story shows the great impact that Forsyth Tech’s dual enrollment program can have on a student’s academic and career path.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
