Kania Rimu is a goal-setter but more importantly, a go-getter. I met Kania in 2012 while she was in the 9th grade and, she was a very shy and unassuming young lady, very much someone who would blend into the background. In 2015, she is not that girl. As quickly as 2013 rolled in, Kania made a name for herself, by pushing for the chance to take two advanced math classes at the same time. Although this may seem like an easy feat, it is an abnormality at Forest Hills High School. She pitched her goals and expectations to the administration and opted to take 8 classes in her sophomore year and she still achieved significantly strong grades. She has kept moving educationally forward each year, taking various advanced placement and honors courses
