Norwich names valedictorian, salutatorian

NORWICH - Gregory Webb and Andy Fu have been granted with the opportunity of a lifetime.

Webb, Norwich High School’s valedictorian, and Fu, salutatorian, said they are now going to use their achievements to further their education.

“For a while, I didn’t really want to go to college. I wanted to go to Princeton,” Webb said. “But I got rejected.”

Webb said although he was disappointed, he knew going to college was necessary. So, in April, he decided that he would apply to St. John’s University.

“It was the only school I could apply to in April (because) I missed all the other deadlines,” he said. “I wanted to go to the New York City area, so at least I can still have that.”
