[Champ]

Student Also Member Of National Honor Society

FORT WORTH, Texas -- Talk about dedication.

A Hillcrest High School student will graduate with perfect attendance for his entire school career.

Senior Shawn Wingrove (pictured, left) said he always thought school was fun and wanted to see how long he could go without missing a day.

By the way, Wingrove is also a black belt in tae kwon do, an Eagle Scout, the drum captain for the band and a member of the National Honor Society.

2. In other words...he's a FREAK

I predict he'll have a perfect attendence record in college and at work, then drop dead the day after he retires.

5. he is gonna miss so much college...

I skipped some in high school and when I got the freedom to go to college I had already sewn my skipping class oats for the most part.

My friends on the other hand who may have had great attendance in high school, went hog wild when they tasted a little bit of freedom.

Of course, the corporate world will love him. I am impressed by the black belt, however.
