A senior spotlight is to recognize an individual who has stood out from the crowd and left a mark in their four brief years here at the highschool. Class of 2025 senior Danica Zelvin is a perfect definition of what a senior spotlight is really for.
In her short time here at MTHS she has created a name for herself and constantly surprises everyone with what she has up her sleeve. She is both an athletic and active member of the school and community.
When asked what she will miss most about highschool, Danica says the connections she made and continues to make on a daily basis. She has loved being able to turn to the person next to her in class and simply chat about how they are. Those little connections/conversations make the days of many people and even lead to friendships along the way.

Dancia’s biggest passions are both sports and business so it only made sense for her to found the sports business club here at the highschool. Taking over a year to form, Danica pushed through obstacles in order to get this club running. Now with over 100 members Danica leads the club with two other students promoting and helping all varsity sports through social media and more. Their biggest focus is to bring attention and help especially the teams that don't get a lot of recognition. Danica says that the very first meeting of this club was one of her favorite high school memories. Being able to see all her work pay off and all the students' excitement to be able to help made it all worth it. Her passion and determination is something in itself to be recognized and admired. Since founding this club there has been a major difference in student involvement at sports games. We can thank Danica and the sports business club for this!
Danica not only shows her amazing leadership skills in the sports business club but another club called DECA. DECA helps prepare individuals to become leaders and entrepreneurs in all business aspects. Whether it’s financial, marketing, hospitality and management etc. Danica leads the club as one of the presidents helping countless students excel in these aspects in preparations for competitions.

Not just in the walls of the highschool is senior Danica Zelvin making a difference but actually out in the sports business field as well. Currently the senior works with athletes signing name image likeness deals which allow them to make money from sponsorships. She also helps connect and market these athletes to companies. At such a young age being able to put herself out there and work with athletes is something not many kids are able to do.
In the end Danica not only is an excellent student, an extremely active member of the school, but she's overall an amazing person. Constantly going above and beyond to push limits and make a difference both in highschool and out in the world. Knowing how much she has done in the few years at the highschool it's only fair to assume that she will continue to do great things after graduation.
