She expressed her gratitude to God, her family, and her friends for helping her during her academic career. “Families and friends, you were essential to my journey, and for that I am very thankful. This is for you, Mom and Dad, once more! I’m glad I made you two proud,” she continued.
In his first year at university, a 19-year-old kid who became the first-ever black best student in his high school earns a grade of over 94%.
Ahmed Muhammad, a remarkable 19-year-old student, was the first black male valedictorian of Oakland Technical High School in Tennessee, USA, and he has had an outstanding first year of university.
Ahmed Muhammad, a student at Stanford University in California, USA, pursuing a bachelor’s degree in computer engineering, achieved an exceptional 4.05 GPA out of a possible maximum of 4.3 points, earning him more than 94% of the possible grade points.
The 19-year-old rose to fame after starting “Kits Cubed,” a STEM teaching company for children, while still in high school.
Ahmed told KTVU that his attitude to the classes at Stanford was not all that different from what his high school teachers expected of him. “I didn’t understand why they were so demanding and hard on me in high school, but now that I’m in college, I’m using what they taught me,” he remarked.

Speaking about Ahmed, Oakland Unified School District Superintendent Kyla Johnson-Trammell praised his extracurricular activities and hard work, calling him a “amazing young man.”
“As the first Black male valedictorian in Oakland Tech’s 106-year history, we are extremely proud of the history that Ahmed made, and we know he will carry the excellence of Oakland with him as he takes on his next academic challenge at Stanford University,” Johnson-Trammell told TODAY.
The founder of Kits Cubed, Ahmed, claimed that he started the company to use accessible, affordable, and enjoyable methods to teach young people about the wonders of science.
His niece and nephew once informed him they were “bad” at science, which gave him the idea to start the organization.

He previously added, “Whenever I babysit them, we do things like play chess, play video games, read books, or watch TV or whatever.”
“They said, ‘No, I detest science,’ when I tried to do science with them. I’m not very good at it. I went to my room and took out a few books on science.
After that, I conducted some research online and created a few science projects that they could perform at home. They adored it, he continued, “and the materials were just things we have around the house.”
Muhammad is now hiring 16–24-year-old students for jobs in marketing, graphic design, community outreach, and kit development. He is also urging young volunteers to apply for his organization’s summer internship program.
