Frodo

If Frodo Baggins had been a student at DHS, he would most certainly have been awarded Scholar of the year!

Frodo sat for hours at the feet of the great wizard Gandolf learning all he must know to bring the evil ring of power and corruption to its end in the fires of Mordor. At DHS our scholar absorbed every nuance of Calculus from our math wizard Mr Henry.

Frodo watched in horror as the great Saruman created Orks from the slime of the Earth. In AP Chemistry our scholar learned from the master alchemist Mrs. Reeves to create the ultimate chemical compound - ice cream.

Gimly the dwarf taught Frodo the virtues of manly courage just as in weight training, Mr. Sciocchetti taught our scholar of the year how to build himself into a powerful physical specimen.

In Rivendel, Arwen the Elfin princess taught Frodo to appreciate the beauty of art and literature just as Mrs. Wood introduced our scholar of the year to the treasures of British literature.

Frodo learned from his uncle Bilbo how to record history in maps and drawings in ancient books. Ms. May taught our Frodo to reecord DHS history on good old-fashioned black and white film.

Just as Frodo witnessed in awe the power of great catapults and war machines of Mordor, our scholar learned in AP physics how to wire a circuit and calculate the velocity of a deadly projectile - a soccer ball.

All these factors came together to strengthen and support Frodo for his final quest and his finest hour. Today we honor our own Frodo Baggins, our unsung hero, our senior Scholar of the Year… Yoshito Shibanuma
