Romeikus Moore, City Arts & Technology High School
College: California State University, San Francisco
Romeikus is City Arts & Tech’s 2017 winner of the Bob Lenz “PDO” Scholarship.
In his College Success Portfolio, Romeikus announced that he is 鈥渞eady for success!鈥� 聽And his four years at CAT demonstrate how he got there. 聽While in high school, Romeikus faced significant personal and academic struggles, and he emerged as an independent thinker with a high GPA. 聽He heads to college as someone who challenges stereotypes, speaks out against injustice, and expresses himself creatively. 聽He also served as an Envision Student Ambassador and was a member of CAT鈥檚 Leadership Class.
Outside of school and on weekends, Romeikus expresses his creativity as part of the dance troupe 鈥淐ulture Shock,鈥� where he is the first and only dancer to be on both the kids鈥� team and the adult team at the same time. 聽
Romeikus earned acceptances to several CSUs and private colleges, and decided to bring his talents to San Francisco State University this Fall, where he will major in social work and minor in dance. 聽We can鈥檛 wait to follow his story, and watch him achieve his lifelong dream of dancing for Missy Elliott and becoming a social worker to serve his community and beyond.
