RIDGEFIELD, CT— Star Students are found in classrooms, on concert and theater stages and at debate lecterns, and out in the community doing good things to make life better for all of us.

Here at Patch, we've launched an initiative to help recognize Star Students, and we’re working to tell the stories of these outstanding kids to their neighbors.

This submission comes from Jesal Vakil who nominated Corrie of Ridgefield.

Why do you believe the star local student should be recognized?

Corrie is very well-rounded, studies, standing up for herself, confidence in speaking to adults and kids of all ages which is a rare quality in most young youth of today. She can talk to one and all. She is very curious and wants to learn more in daily life. Very organized and a true leader.

Congratulations on your achievements, and all of our best wishes to you in the future, Corrie!
