Sean Dunroe was bom in Tokyo, Japan, to Tom and Shayla Dunroe. At two years of age he returned with his family and lived in Centerville. At 12 years of age he earned his Eagle rank in scouting. He is a member of the Viewmont High School Academic Olympiad Team, National Honor Society, and captain of the swim team. Sean's speech centers on great individuals. He wrote: "Napoleon Hill once said, 'No man ever achieved worthwhile wor-thwhile success who did not, at one time or other, find himself with at least one foot hanging over the brink of failure.' "Everyone in this class of 1991 has the potential to do great things. If we are willing to face challenges and overcome failures, we can do anything we want to. Everyone's always told me that You can do anything you want to as long as you put your mind to it. Nothing is impossible.' im-possible.' It took me quite a while to realize that's not true. We have to do more than just put our minds to it. We have to honestly hon-estly try. We even have to do more than that. We have to try with all the strength we have; we have to give 100 percent effort to every worthwhile goal that we can ever expect to achieveor we'll just fail." Ryan Mori shit a is the son of Bob and Karen Morishita. He reads extensively, collects basketball cards, and watches TV (mostly basketball games and World War II movies) in his spare time. He describes himself as "a member of the National Honor Society and the band and copy editor of the yearbook. I was a National Merit finalist and Sterling Sterl-ing Scholar finalist in math and have a 4.0 GPA and a 33 ACT and I didn't receive the Presidential Presiden-tial Scholarship at the U of U. I have never been linked to a government cover-up, I have never been accused of poaching, and I have never had to declare bankruptcy, just to name a few accomplishments. My valedictory valedic-tory address will include the following lines: "We are here tonight to commemorate our high school graduation. Several times tonight, to-night, you will hear people tell you this is the "first night of the rest of your life" or this night marks your 'entrance into adulthood.' I would like to add that this may be your exit from childhood" Twin brothers, Ammon and Aaron Jones, sons of Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Jones, have also been chosen as valedictorians.
