Crossland’s Class of 2025 Showcases Career-Ready Talent

At Crossland High School, the Class of 2025 is diverse, driven, and ready to lead in a changing world. This year’s seniors aren’t just walking away with diplomas — they’re walking into high-demand careers, college programs, and a future they’ve already begun shaping through hard work and purpose.

A District Leader in Career and Technical Education

As PGCPS’ flagship for Career and Technical Education (CTE), Crossland offers students access to rigorous, hands-on programs in fields that are both growing and essential. From information technology and medicine to construction trades and culinary arts, students are earning industry-recognized credentials and real-world experience before they even cross the stage.

Students like Wendy Novoa are already putting their skills to work — employed full-time with All Roads Trucks while rebuilding engines on weekends at Pohanka Hyundai. It’s a clear example of how Crossland prepares students to enter the workforce with confidence and capability.

The Class of 2025 has collectively earned nearly $7 million in scholarships. Among the standout achievers is Aiden Brewer, who secured more than $1 million in scholarship offers. Valedictorian Kevin Agustin Lopez was awarded the prestigious Gates Scholarship — given to only 300 students nationwide — and is on a path toward earning his doctorate.

Kamron Holland also made headlines with a remarkable 1400 SAT score, underscoring the academic strength and potential of this graduating class.

Champions On and Off the Field

Crossland students didn’t just lead in academics and careers — they also excelled in athletics and the arts. Highlights include:

• Johnny Wilkins: Amateur boxing standout with 12 belts and an 18-3 record, preparing for a professional career.
  
  
• Jordyn Moore: Junior Gold Medalist and professional bowler.
  
  
• Xavion Fidele: 2A State Shot Put Champion.
  
  
• Nathaniel Johnson: 2A South Regional Tennis Champion, competing for the state title.
  
  
• Trenton Hansberry: High Jump Champion heading into state finals.

These students have demonstrated not only talent, but discipline and drive — attributes that will 

Crossland’s Class of 2025 reflects the school’s motto of being “Crossland Qualified” — a standard that signals students are prepared to lead, contribute, and succeed in college, careers, or service. The phrase is more than a slogan on campus; it represents a culture of readiness that aligns with the district’s broader focus on post-graduation success.
