Juniors Romello Potts, Kianu Crichlow and Jasmin Trubinski were invited to join the Y Young Achiever’s College tour of Washington, D.C., to visit college campuses and tour the capital region’s historic and cultural sights.
“I enjoyed seeing the different campuses, and the Jefferson and Martin Luther King Memorials,” said Potts, who enjoyed meeting Ben Carson, MD, who triumphed over a difficult childhood to become a renowned pediatric neurosurgeon at Johns Hopkins Hospital.
The trip included visits to Virginia and Baltimore.
“It was a very good experience, and I would love to go again,” Potts said.
