BERGEN COUNTY, NJ — 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 Barbara Moreira who nominated Rose, of Ridgewood-Glen Rock.

During her four High Honor Roll high school years, Rose participated in Sharing the Arts, a performing arts program designed for students with developmental delays. Seeing the smiles on the faces of young people after those sessions was rewarding for me and her.
