Outstanding CHS seniors

Adam Wagermeister According to Calabasas graduate Adam Wagermeister, balance is the key to life. But Adam doesn’t focus just on academics, even though he holds a 4.25 grade point average. And he’s not all about baseball, even though he’s been playing the game since he was 3 and has earned many awards.

Adam volunteers at the Ronald McDonald House program and he’s the treasurer of the school’s Interact club, Rotary International’s public service club for young people. He’s a member of the Calabasas Teen Activities Council, which provides events for youth to keep them out of trouble.

Adam plans to attend USC with hopes of being a surgeon. But don’t be surprised if he tries to tackle politics some day. For Adam Wagermeister, the sky’s the limit.

Natalie Vernia Natalie Vernia said if her life were a movie, the soundtrack would include the song “Survivor” by Destiny’s Child because she never gives up on any of her goals.

The CHS graduate has a 4.4 grade point average. She’s in the math club and on the peer support team. She’s a top player on the girls’ basketball team and received a music award from the National Guild for Piano. And Natalie is trilingual.

Natalie plans to attend Caltech in Pasadena to study applied math and business. Future students might even see Natalie Vernia as their math professor, but don’t be surprised if she also makes the business journals one day as corporate executive of the year.
