There Is Still Hope

How four Milwaukee teens are breaking barriers and inspiring dreams

Four Rufus King High School students are inspiring their peers and future generations with their incredible achievement: all four have been accepted into Spelman College, a prestigious historically Black women’s institution in Atlanta.

With an acceptance rate of just 25%, Spelman is a beacon of excellence, and these young women have proven their determination, resilience, and commitment to education.

Wy’yana Adams described the moment as “like a dream come true,” while Jordyn Henderson shared, “I’ve wanted to go to this school since the fourth grade.” Taelor Banks added, “I have been dreaming about this since freshman year,” and Anavi Alston admitted, “I was shocked.”

Each of these young women has bold ambitions for the future. “I aspire to become an anesthesiologist,” Anavi said. Jordyn explained, “I want to be a medical lab technician.” Wy’yana plans to “get enrolled in medical school,” while Taelor shared, “My dream is to be a lawyer.”

These four young ladies worked hard for their dreams and hope for the future.  Great work Wy’yana, Jordyn, Taelor and Anavi!!!!
