Superintendent’s Update to the Board at the June 16 Meeting
A compilation of news you can use and various happenings around VVSD for the week of June 12.
VVSD Class of 2025 Spotlight- Laura Doguim, Valedictorian, Bolingbrook HS
Bolingbrook HS Class of 2025 Valedictorian Laura Doguim may someday assume the title of Most Interesting Person in the World. Laura is a piano playing, Jazz Band trumpeter, who will study Physics at the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign.
If you want to know what Laura thinks about the world around her- just ask her. If you truly listen to her answer, you’ll find yourself reflecting on your own thoughts and opinions.
Laura began her speech at Commencement by showing her personality is just as big as her social conscience and her aspirations for the future.
VVSD Class of 2025 Spotlight- Angel Darko, Valedictorian, Romeoville HS
Romeoville High School Class of 2025 Valedictorian Angel Darko has one of the most interesting resumes you will ever see. In addition to being at the top of the list of members of the RHS Class of 2025, Angel also holds several RHS girls’ powerlifting records, and she has the RHS school record holder for highest vertical leap at 34 inches. That feat is even more amazing considering Angel is 4-feet 11-inches tall! A similar vertical by a person six feet tall would be three-and-a-half feet.
Angel will attend Harvard University, studying finance and actuarial science. She had several options for attending college, and began the conversation by explaining why Harvard is where she will continue her education.

VVSD Class of 2025 Spotlight- Brandon Dohmeier, Salutatorian, Bolingbrook HS
Brandon Dohmeier is driven by a desire to understand how things work and acquiring a firm grasp of the “why”. In the classroom, that is why Brandon enjoys Physics. In his personal life, that desire to understand helps him manage health challenges he has faced all his life.
Brandon will attend the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign in the fall and pursue a degree in mechanical engineering. Our conversation began with Brandon sharing with us the thing he will remember best about Bolingbrook HS is the school’s sense of community.
