[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hasn't this shipped sailed long ago??? I mean when you have 27 Valedictorians, it tells you something. In Fairfax County in the 80s/90s, we had one. Valedictorian: a student (singular), typically having the highest academic achievements of the class, who delivers the valedictory at a graduation ceremony. The private schools still have one Valedictorian and one Salutatorian. Salutatorian: the student who ranks second highest in a graduating class and delivers the salutatory. a graduating class and delivers the salutatory. The terms have come to mean very little in public HS.[/quote] My high school in fairfax county in the early 2000s had nine people that were valedictorians. They all were equally the highest. But only one could give the speech. They had to submit an essay and whoever had the best gave the speech. All nine were honored on stage for about a minute though. [/quote]
