Congratulations to Salutatorian, Moitri Santra, Salutatorian of the Class of 2026 and our Student of the Year, whose extraordinary achievements continue to make Oviedo High School shine.

Moitri was named one of the Top 300 Young Scientists in the Nation in the Regeneron Science Talent Search, earning $4,000 for herself and Oviedo High School. Her cutting‑edge research on improving treatment for citrus greening disease has also made her a 3M Young Scientist Challenge Finalist, an ISEF Grand Award Winner, Florida Farm Bureau Winner, and a FOX 35 Student of the Week.

As a member of the Kang Research Group, Moitri brings exceptional skill in experimental design, data analysis, and advanced biological research. She serves as a mentor to young scientists and continues to advance meaningful, real‑world scientific solutions.

As Moitri’s principal, she is not only talented but also humble and empathetic towards others, which speaks volumes about her character.

We are incredibly proud of Moitri and cannot wait to see the impact she will make on the world.

 

Over Spring break, our Varsity Color Guard competed in Atlanta for the WGI Southeastern Regional. At prelims and finals they placed 1st in their class with an incredible score of 91.85. As of right now, Oviedo HS Varsity is sitting 1st in the nation in their class! They have a few weeks left of their season where they will compete in WGI World Championships in Dayton, Ohio. Congratulations!

 

Also, 7 students chose to participate in State Solo & Ensemble during the break. These students received the following ratings:

 

Excellent – Dominic Byrd and Samantha Kaprow

 

Superior – Eleanor Anderson, Liam Blevins, Matthew Fecko, and Brandon Mendoza

 

Lorelai Bibler received a Superior with Distinction, which means she performed the solo memorized!
