Julia Jaynes, 17, who shared the valedictorian title with 29 others, said that if her school chose only one, it would destroy collegiality among her classmates. “If everyone wants to be the best, I feel like there’d be less collaboration,” she said. “It makes it so you’re only out for yourself.”
I can see those competing for the spot would be gathering their own entourage of groupies, hall gangs clashing, shouting wrong test answers at each other.
