Each year, there are fourteen seniors honored by the school and community for
their outstanding achievements. These students then recieve the Rotary Club
Student of the Month Award.
The Rotary Club is an organization of men and women who are active in making
a difference in the community by their service as well as their funds.
A student is chosen for this honor for being a dependable person, having leadership
qualities, being active in school and extracurricular activities, as well as
having outstanding grades. The student needs to be a conscientious person and
set a good example for everyone. These qualities are just a few expected out
of the Student of the Month.
In order to be given this honor a student must first be nominated by teachers
and faculty. Then, a selected group of counselors, administrators, and teachers
chose the seniors, 7 girls and 7 boys.
The students attend the meeting at the Holiday Inn on the last Wednesday of
their assigned month and are recognized for their outstanding achievements.
