SEPTEMBER STUDENT OF THE MONTH
Conner LaRosa, son of Eric and Debbie LaRosa
has been awarded Student of the Month for
September.
Conner thinks he was selected because of his
great work ethic, and his willingness to do his
best in everything he does.
Throughout his high school years, Conner
has participated in football, basketball, track, FBLA, HOSA, and FFA.
When asked, Mr. Hirsh said, “Conner always has a positive outlook in class. He is always willing to joke and get involved in my lessons. He also keeps the rest of the class in line. But his positive energy doesn’t stop in the classroom. He is willing to help anyone who needs it and follows the rules. He’s a great example for others.”
