June 03, 2015 Syndicated from District

     Monroe High School junior-to-be Sven Wollschlaeger has been nominated by former NASA astronaut Buzz Aldrin to attend the Congress of Future Science and Technology Leaders in Boston, MA, June 28-June 30.

     The Congress is an honors-only program for high school students who are passionate about science, technology, engineering or mathematics.  The Congress aims to inspire, motivate, honor and direct the top students in the country who aspire to be scientists and technologists, providing them a path, plan and resources to help them reach their goals.

     “We are extremely proud of Sven for being chosen to represent Michigan and Monroe High School at this very important Congress,” said Monroe High School Principal Valerie Orr.  “As the president of the Class of 2017, a member of the student council, secretary of the National Honor Society and an Ignition mentor, he is one of our campus leaders.  This is great opportunity for him to start to fulfill his dreams for after graduation.”

     During the three-day Congress, Sven will join students from across the country and hear Nobel Laureates and National Medal of Science winners talk about leading scientific research; receive advice from deans of the world’s top technological  universities, be inspired by fellow teen science prodigies; and learn about cutting-edge advances and the future of science and technology.

     As he prepares to attend the Congress after school is out for the summer, Sven thanked several businesses, organizations and people for supporting his nomination.  They are Mrs. Valerie Orr, Mr. Jeff McVeigh, Mrs. Sandra Michels, Monroe High School Student Council, Monroe High School Athletic office, Attorney Cheryl Sweeney, River Bank Wealth Management, Electric Beach Tanning and his parents, John and Corina Mignano.MHS junior selected for STEM COnghress
