Congratulations to two AACPS students — Tenley Raymond of Old Mill High School and Rocco Katsikides of Severna Park High School — who were selected as part of Junior Achievement of Central Maryland’s “JA 18 Under 18 Class of 2026.” This program recognizes students across the region for leadership, entrepreneurship, community involvement, and academic achievement. Plenty of kids enjoy baking cookies, but Kiriakos (Rocco) turned a hobby into a business. In 7th grade, Rocco got a mixer and baking supplies and built his own business, Colossus Cookie Company, from the ground up, starting with sales in his neighborhood and growing to sales in local markets. Tenley exemplifies leadership that uplifts others and has a lasting impact on her community. She is an active volunteer at community events, including collecting and delivering donated books for her community’s book sale, and she created a fall lacrosse clinic to teach young girls the fundamentals of the sport during the off-season. #OurStory

Congratulations to our Tracey’s Tiger Alumni’s! Our seniors came back through our doors for their senior walk today. Over 40 of our former students walked our hallways for one last time before they graduate. Our students lined the hallways to cheer them on and celebrate their accomplishments. Tears of happiness were shed and we can’t wait for you all to walk across the stage in the coming weeks and graduate from HS. 💙🧡 Once a tiger always a tiger!
