Great-Granddaughter of 'Hidden Figures' Katherine Johnson Earns Perfect Math Score

[BobTheSubgenius]

20. Kudos to the little genius!

The world needs brilliant people, now, more than ever. I hope she does something great with her life.

My middle step-grand is really smart, too. A couple of years ago, she had a report card that was pretty awe-inspiring, at least for the family. Her lowest grade was 97.5 and she had three subjects in which she had a perfect 100.

She followed that up by being the only student her age to get 100% on the standardized state science test. She is also vying for first chair in flute and piccolo against students as much as 5 years older, sings the national anthem at every school (and some non-school) event, solos in school musical events, has been bitten by the acting bug and plays JV basketball and volleyball.

Her two older cousins have graduated and are on to college, and her 3 younger ones all made honor roll in their respective grade levels.
