How do you know the star local student?
She's my daughter
Why do you believe the star local student should be recognized?
Brooklyn is a wonderful daughter, student and sister. She has remained on the honor roll ever since kindergarten and is now a student athlete and still maintains good grades. A few years back I went through a brutal bout with breast cancer and even though she was so young she was my greatest caregiver. She grew up very quickly and understood how she could contribute to the greater good in our family. She is also a painter and crochet artist. She makes beautiful gifts for her friends and family and hopes to have an etsy shop soon. As a family, we dedicate our time and resources to Hearts and Hands Food pantry and Brooklyn enthusiastically volunteers every time there is a break in school. She is an all around great girl that excels at everything she tries and I am proud to be her mother.
What's one thing you want everyone to know about the star local student?
She has faced many challenges with a smile on her face and a kind heart. She has experienced bullying and shown kindness and compassion to her bullies. She has been a friend to kids who often get socially isolated and she is growing up to have a generous supportive heart.
Congratulations on your achievements, and all of our best wishes to you in the future, Brooklyn!
