Senator Poore with William Penn High School Student Briana Robinson.

Last year Senator Poore met a wonderful middle school student, Briana Robinson at George Read Middle School and promised to visit her at William Penn High School this year. Although Briana is visually impaired, she has adjusted superbly to William Penn. In fact, she finished her first marking period with honors!

Awesome job, Briana. Congratulations!
