Elaina Diaz

This fall I will be attending Grand Canyon University in Phoenix, Arizona. There I will be participating in the Honors College and majoring in Communications with a minor in Entrepreneurial Studies. 

My favorite memories of high school come from experiences I had through FCCLA or Family, Career and Community Leaders of America where I am currently serving as the State President. One of the most memorable activities of the year is always the National Leadership Conference held in the summer. At the 2019 NLC I had the opportunity to carry our state flag across the stage in front of almost 10,000 people.

He has lived in Montesano his whole life and will always value the friendships and experiences he has gained in his time at MHS and from living in Montesano in general. Even though it's disappointing that he wasn’t able to experience his senior track season, he is grateful that he was able to compete as a “Bulldog."

Janessa Lynn Otterstetter 

Janessa will be attending Wenatchee Valley College. She signed and will be playing volleyball and softball for the Knights for two years. Janessa knows this will be a challenge but she’s up for it. She is very excited to get to continue playing her two favorite sports. Janessa will be getting her associate in applied science and then transferring to a dental hygiene school. She has two favorite memories in high school. The first was going to state for volleyball her freshman year and winning a sportsmanship award. The second is winning state for softball her junior year and her making the winning catch. 

Janessa wants her Class of 2020 to know that she’s so sad that they didn’t get to finish making those last memories and she misses you all. “Take pride in how far you have come & have faith in how far you can go.”
