April 16—Senior Briana Jimenez was recently notified that she has been chosen as one of the 1,000 "Gates Millennium Scholars" for 2012. There were over 24,000 applications this year for the coveted 1,000 spots. The award is a multi-year scholarship that continues all the way to college graduation, and can even be extended through graduate school for certain majors. The application is one of the more lengthy to complete, requiring eight one-page essays and a formal nominator from the student's school. Mr. Ortiz, Briana's nominator, said that the last time ERHS had had a Gates Millennium winner was twelve years ago.

Chef Luna and his Culinary Arts students catered the opening day event, as well.
