Micah Hughes
Profile
I am currently completing my Senior year at Denbigh High School’s Aviation Academy where I have earned a 3.68 GPA while taking many AP and Honors classes. Welding and aviation courses highlight my schedule. I am actively involved in sports, Student Council, serving as Class President, and am actively pursuing my Private Pilot’s License.
My goal is to maintain exceptional grades and to pursue excellence in sports in the hopes of achieving academic and/or athletic college scholarships.
