Lauren Popovits, a senior at FHS, epitomizes academic excellence with her impressive 4.004 GPA, ranking 18th in her class, poised to graduate with high honors on May 22nd. Amidst tackling three AP classes, her dedication extends beyond academics. With parents John and Chrissy, both FCS employees, and siblings Evelyn and Ben, Lauren finds joy in various pursuits, from her love of robotics and 3D printing to her involvement in clubs like Rotary Interact and National Honor Society. Her altruism shines through extensive volunteer work, balancing it all with her roles as a private tutor and occasional house and dog sitter. Although sports take a backseat to her passion for robotics, her future at Kettering University, double majoring in Electrical and Computer Engineering, promises to be bright. Lauren's fondest memories at FHS include leading her team to victory at the State Robotics Tournament and the guidance of her favorite teacher, Mr. Ian Thomas, who instilled in her the confidence to speak and lead effectively. With aspirations to travel and start a family, Lauren's generosity extends even further with a $100 donation to the Judson Center, reflecting her commitment to making a positive impact on the world.
