Senior Spotlight: Wyatt Rankin
This week’s Senior Spotlight is all about Wyatt Rankin! Wyatt has worked hard throughout high school, keeping up a solid 3.4 GPA while also taking dual-enrollment classes.
Back in his freshman year, Wyatt played both football and basketball, showing his love for staying active and being part of a team. Outside of school, you’ll almost always find him outdoors.
He loves hunting, fishing, and especially riding dirt bikes—something he’s been doing and racing for the last 13 years.
When reflecting on his high school experience, Wyatt says his favorite memory is finding genuine, supportive people who have made a meaningful impact on his life.
After graduation, Wyatt plans to head to California to become a wildland firefighter, a career that fits his adventurous spirit and love for the outdoors.
