Top 10 Spotlight - Valedictorian Thomas Alan Hays PARENTS: Nicole & Anthony Hays PLANS AFTER GRADUATION: After completing my undergraduate physics degree and PhD in plasma physics, I plan to collaborate with others in nuclear fusion research to make commercial fusion a reality - opening up the possibility for clean, abundant energy for all. MOST INFLUENTIAL PERSON IN YOUR LIFE: The person with the greatest influence on me at NHS was undoubtedly Mr. Carl Bunker, our school's algebra and calculus teacher.

MOST MEMORABLE MOMENT AT NHS: The most memorable moment I had at Napoleon was my chance to take part in the Napoleon High School production of The Music Man in my senior year. Since I was young, I have loved this play, and the opportunity to play the part of Mayor Shinn was one of the highlights of my time in high school.
