TNT Es | a a As Fok EE ee a eee All Around Winner Al Floyd is one of the most all around students that we have at Burns. He’s outstanding in sports and aca- demics. Al was one of the students selected to go to Washington for the president- ial classroom. A number of students were selected by the Social Studies de- partment to be interviewed by Superin- tendant Blake and others on the board. Some of them were then selected to go to Washington and Al was one lucky enough to be selected. Al is active in academics as well as sports. He’s a member of the Beta Club, Spanish Club, Spanish Honor So- ciety and FCA. Al commented, “'l like being involved with people and working with them.” Al stated, ‘‘I’m planning on going to college, but I’m undecided on which one’s I’d prefer.’’ Al’s also commented, ‘I'd like to get a scholarship probably in academics.’”’ Al’s capabilities equal out. His most preferred sports and ac- ademics are: baseball and football; math and science. Al began quarterbacking when he was in the sixth grade, and has con- tinued since then. Al commented, “‘I’ll probably go out for quarterback in col- lege football.’’ Al was a member of the baseball, football, and basketball team while he was at the Junior High. He’s an outstanding player he received in ninth grade; most valuable player award in baseball; best leader in bas- ketball and best offense player in foot- ball. He’s interested in sports and en- joys the teamwork. He’s definitely does good in most ev- erything he does. But he puts forward a lot of effort and sacrifices his time. But it shows up in the work he does; in the end product.
