Raj Vishnu graduated from East Greenwich High School on Sunday, June 4, then had his Eagle Court of Honor ceremony Wednesday, June 7.  It was a big few days! Raj, a member of Troop 1 East Greenwich, earned his Eagle Scout rank in 2022. His Eagle project was organizing a clean up at the EG Land Trust property at Bleachery Pond.

Raj will be attending RPI (Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute) in New York this fall. He is pursuing a degree in Electrical Engineering.

    Raj, it’s your old middle school teacher Mrs. McG! Congratulations on becoming an Eagle Scout! Also, many thanks for cleaning up the Bleachery Pond area, we recently took the 7th grade there for a nature walk and it was fabulous! Best wishes for a bright and wonderful future!
