“As State Senator, I believe very strongly that our young people will become the leaders of tomorrow and one of the greatest privileges I have is to recognize and honor students like Joshua who exemplify the highest standard of academic excellence and personal achievement,” said Senator Nozzolio. “I congratulate Joshua for his outstanding accomplishments and wish him the best of luck in all his future endeavors.”
