Celebrating the Class of 2025 Valedictorian, Salutatorian, and KHS Top 11

The annual Kingsley High School Top 10 ranking is a distinct honor for our students earning this award. This year, the district had a tie for 10th place, so 11 students were recognized. 

“These students have demonstrated their commitment to educational excellence during their time in high school. They pushed themselves in all of their classes, including advanced classes and programs,” said KHS principal Chris Rapes. 

Valedictorian Sayla Bender

Valedictorian Sayla Bender participated in a variety of activities across her high school years. She competes in track and cross country, attends Teacher Academy at the Career Tech Center, participates in a youth group, and is in National Honor Society. She was also a clarinet player in the band for three years.

“What I’ll remember most is that everyone’s super nice and kind. They’re kind and encourage each other. We’re all here for each other.”

Salutatorian, Isabella Paroskie

Isabella Paroskie was named salutatorian. Isabella plays soccer, is a member of National Honor Society and is in student council. She plans to attend Grand Valley State University after graduation. 

Congratulations to our top 11 students!
