Blue and gold reflected in the proud eyes of West Babylon High School’s top 25 graduating seniors during the Superintendent’s Blue and Gold Luncheon in the board of education room on June 23. Hosted by Superintendent of Schools Dr. Yiendhy Farrelly and joined by district administrators, students shared this annual celebration of their achievements with a chosen faculty member who greatly impacted their educational journey. 

“Being the top 25 of your class is a reflection of your resilience and discipline,” Dr. Farrelly told the students. “You’ve earned this distinction through relentless commitment, but even more remarkably, you’ve done so while giving so much of yourselves to your school and community.” 

Dr. Farrelly called each student to be recognized individually and presented them with a gift. The student also invited their guest to be acknowledged as well. The top 25 gathered for one last group photo together before their upcoming graduation. 

Congratulations to the top 25 students (in order from 1-25): William Horowitz, Magdalena Obrycki, Olivia Stuart, Christopher Alexiadis, Philip Dolega, Lindsey Kutchens, Shayna Juimo-Kamga, Ashley Gil, Nicole Olszewski, Andrew Mandelbaum, Grace Rotolo, David Aguilar, Greg Almonacid, Isabella Ingoglia, Matthew Murray, Leo Lin, Olivia Wysocki, Taylor Watta, Daniella Nocera, Isaac Joseph, Leo Jin, Gabriel Hernandez, Nicole Rex, Charlotte Bilicki and Victoria Pawelski.
