WTWO hosts Top of the Class Luncheon for Valedictorians across the Wabash Valley
FARMERSBURG, Ind. (WTWO/WAWV)— Our 34th annual Top of the Class Luncheon took place Wednesday afternoon, honoring valedictorians from local high schools. America's Got Talent winner Richard Goodall performed as we said congratulations to the 120 valedictorians from more than 40 Wabash Valley schools in Indiana and Illinois. Among the class of 2025 are at least 2 sets of twins sharing Valedictorian honors and at least 2 sets of cousins sharing the top spot. The valedictorian from North Knox, Alex McKinnley, is the 4th valedictorian in her family. Her 3 siblings were also Valedictorians. We heard from her and from the marketing director at Lincoln Trail College, who sponsored the event. 'It's really an honor, especially since all of my siblings were,' said Alex McKinley, North Knox Valedictorian. 'And it's also an honor to share this title with my best friend Malli Lyons who is also valedictorian.' 'One of the things that we're encouraging these students to do is to get college started early,' said Chris Forde from Lincoln Trail College. 'Lincoln Trail College and all of IECC offer summer classes so they have a chance to earn credit over the summer without paying a lot of money, so we tell them it is a financially smart choice for them.' The event took place at North Central High School just down the road from the station. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

'One year ago today, I was climbing up on that stage just to give it my shot and had absolutely no clue what was going to transpire after that. Had an amazing time. People are just so great and wonderful. I am so grateful for everything that has been going on.'
