DeSoto, TX (WBAP/KLIF) – Eighteen year old Destiny Brannon was crowned valedictorian at DeSoto High School this year, but recently found out the title belongs to another student due to a miscalculation by the district.
Almost a month after graduation, the mistake was confirmed and a classmate formerly at number four in the class, was moved to number one.
In Texas, a student who graduates as valedictorian from a school accredited by the Texas Education Agency, can get their first year of tuition waived at a public college or university in the state.
