Plano resident Sophie Guerin plans to take the world by storm after graduating as valedictorian from the Einstein School. As a student, Sophie challenges herself with rigorous courses. At Einstein, she completed their college-level honors humanities sequence and is among those advanced enough to take Einstein’s classes in Mechanical Engineering and Thermodynamics. She also takes dual-enrollment courses at Collin County Community College. Sophie’s interest in programming, designing, and building robots led her to co-found Einstein's Engineering Club.
This spring, Sophie competed in the playoffs round of the First Tech Challenge World Championship with a team for which she was Mechanical Lead, Head Driver, and Team Captain. Sophie’s team also worked to raise money, provide a robotics kit, and mentor robotics students attending a school for the hard of hearing. Sophie’s passions extend to performance, as well. Last month, she played Liza Doolittle in Einstein’s production of My Fair Lady and has served as Assistant Director for Einstein’s theatre department for the past four years.
As a testament to her academic and artistic accomplishments, Sophie was inducted into the International Thespian Society in 2020. Her dedication to our city, to the Einstein School, and to her larger community is truly inspiring! When Sophie Guerin heads off to college this fall, she will continue to enrich her community through hard work, leadership, and her passion for making a difference!
