Meet Mylon, a graduate of the class of 2013 from St. Anthony Catholic school in NE Washington, DC.

Mylon came to St. Anthony's in the fifth grade. Principal Michael Thomasian describes Mylon as “articulate, friendly, and ready to serve. He was helpful in and around the school while maintaining his grades.” While at St. Anthony's, Mylon was on the student council and participated in the school book club. He also participated in band and played on the St. Anthony basketball team.

"Kind, very interesting and fun" are words Mylon uses to describe St. Anthony's. He adds, “we respected each other and took very seriously St. Anthony’s words that ‘actions speak louder than words’.”

Today, Mylon is a student at DeMatha Catholic High School.  When asked about what career he might be interested in pursuing, Mylon responds, “If I don’t make it to the pros for basketball, I’ll go into sports medicine”.

One thing is clear, Mylon has the work ethic and determination to make it wherever he goes.
