Congratulations to Senior Haggith Martinez for being named the 2024 Horatio Alger State Scholar! Over spring break, Haggith was invited to Washington, D. C. to participate in the National Scholar's Conference, where she represented the state of Georgia! The Horatio Alger Association honors outstanding individuals who personify the American Dream. An essential component of the Association's mission is to provide an avenue for the leaders of today to cultivate the leaders of tomorrow.
"From meeting and chatting with Justice Clarence Thomas to being in the same room as President George W. Bush and other famous people. I still cannot believe it! I got to network and show Horatio Alger Members (Million/Billionaires) my skills, ambitions, and potential, and learn about the next steps to my success. This was not only a learning experience, it was life-changing experience that developed strong relationships with my fellow scholars. I’m so happy I’m the 2024 Horatio Alger State Scholar for my lovely state of Georgia. Representing Colquitt County was an honor!" said Martinez.
Haggith, you are a #PackerPointofPride!
