Michiah Watts named Female Scholar Athlete of the Month

Armstrong High School’s Michiah Watts was recognized as the RPS Female Scholar Athlete of the Month for April 2016:

Michiah D. Watts is best known for her perseverance and commitment to excellence in athletics and in the classroom. A senior at Richmond Community High School, Michiah maintains a 4.07 GPA and she actively participates as a member of the National Honor Society, Spanish Club, FBLA and Mu Alpha Theta Math Honor Society. Not stopping there, Michiah is also very active in her community where she serves as an Ambassador Girl Scout, member of Zion’s Voice Community Gospel Choir and volunteer with the Giving Heart.

In addition to her academic and community involvement, Michiah is a member of the Armstrong Wildcat Track Team, where she can often be found diligently working to improve her performances both on and off the track. Michiah joined the Wildcat Family as a freshman; and for three years she demonstrated her athletic abilities on the Wildcat Volleyball, Basketball and Track teams. Entering her senior year, Michiah realized that Track and Field was the sport that would not only allow her to further develop her athletic skills but it would also help to build her confidence as a student-athlete and leader among her peers.

Michiah is a member of the 2016 indoor state qualifying 4×200 relay and a state qualifier in the long jump. Her goal is to qualify in the triple jump as well, and considering her level of determination and tenacity she’s very likely to make that happen!

A student-athlete, leader and dedicated team player, Michiah Watts most deserves to be nominated and recognized as a Scholar Athlete of the Month.
