“The week before the holiday break is bringing tidings of great joy to New Bedford High School seniors awaiting notifications of acceptance from the colleges and universities of their choice, which they had applied for early in the school year.
Last Thursday evening the first of these seniors received positive news on the results of their early action college applications. They include Carter Barbosa (Harvard University), Kiva Bank (Yale University), Megha Patel (Northeastern University), Keyanna Jones (Princeton University), and Lauren Mitchell (Harvard University).
In congratulating the group, Mayor Jon Mitchell stated, “I am very proud of each of these students, and the opportunities they were offered at New Bedford High School. We are all looking forward to more great college admissions news from this very talented senior class.”
Interim Superintendent Andrew O’Leary noted, “As a parent of two NBHS whalers, each and every year, we see how New Bedford High School prepares its students for higher education and many of the nation’s most prestigious academic institutions agree. These scholars are only the latest example and are by no means the exception. Congratulations to these first seniors to be notified and to the faculty and staff of New Bedford High School.”-New Bedford Public Schools.
