A Step Above: Asli Kupoglu
Green Valley High School
Class of 2010
Green Valley High School Student Body President Asli Kupoglu is taking it all in stride. That’s not to say that she doesn’t apply herself diligently to all that she does, be it taking a leadership role, scoring on the athletic field or helping others through volunteer work. Nor does it mean that her curiosity, intelligence and ambition don’t propel her toward learning from life’s experiences and moving onward. It simply means that she doesn’t let the small stuff get in the way of her plan to live life to the fullest, always remembering to be thoughtful and respectful of others along the way, and for that, Asli Kupoglu is – A Step Above.

Asli Looks Up To: “I really look up to Ellen DeGeneres. She has such a playful attitude, but at the same time she does so much for others and the community.
