Cole plays trumpet in Jefferson’s marching band, pep band and jazz band and participates in Boy Scouts, and B.A.A. baseball and basketball. He plans to study engineering and computer science in college.
Longley participates on the math team, Quiz Bowl, cross country, Nordic skiing and track. He is an AP Scholar with Honor and maintains a 4.39 GPA. He plans to pursue a major in a STEM field.

Longley, Melville and Thomson are graduates of the Dimensions Academy High School program for gifted 9th and 10th grade students.
The ACT exam consists of tests in English, mathematics, reading and science, each scored on a scale of 1–36. A student’s composite score is the average of the four test scores. Some students also take the optional ACT writing test, but the score for that test is reported separately and is not included within the ACT composite score. ACT test scores are accepted by all major U.S. colleges and provide evidence of student readiness for the academic rigors of postsecondary study.
