Skylar Burzinski, though she took honors courses since her freshman year and achieved straight A’s throughout high school, will not be honored as a salutatorian or valedictorian, as she was unable to complete one of the Kansas Regents Curriculum courses required for the honor. While it would have been nice, there simply wasn’t enough time in Burzinski’s busy schedule working toward a greater reward — graduating with her high school diploma and graduating from Labette Community College with her associate degree in general studies, only days apart, giving her parents Jody and Thad Burzinski two commencements to attend back to back. Her junior year, Burzinski began “seriously” taking college classes, though receiving her degree by the time she graduated high school was not forefront in her mind at that time.
