Boone County Schools superintendent Bryan Blavatt addresses some of the students to be honored. These four are among more than 350 Boone County Schools students who will be honored this weekend. From academics to athletics to arts, the district's Breakfast of Champions celebrates students who have won regional, state or national recognition this year.
People have such a bad opinion of kids and schools.

From junior Olympians to Web page designers, Boone County students have claimed hundreds of state and national titles. The Ryle High School cheerleaders, who placed third in the nation. Yealey Elementary and Conner Middle schools, which won their regional Governor's Cup academic competitions.
