Ben Grimstead spent four years swimming competitively in high school and eventually became his team’s captain. He’s going to North Carolina State University after graduation, with a little help from the National Merit Scholarship he earned. He feels ready to succeed in the real world because of his teachers at Mount Tabor High School, who he says gave him plenty of chances to think critically and solve problems.
“It’s really helped when teachers have led me to help myself and taught me to deal with problems on my own,” Grimstead said. “When a teacher gives you a trial run and asks you what kind of solutions you can put forward, that really helps me.”
