Tell us about your star student's accomplishments and why they deserve to be recognized on Patch!

Sonny has worked so hard in school and in sports. He played both football and track. He played football from the 3rd grade through his senior year. He made the honor roll and is planning to attend MSJC to study business management and accounting. I nominate Sonny because it’s been a rough ride, and he made it through. The fact that he is going to college, even though it’s been tough for him, is a huge positive, and I’m proud of him for all he has accomplished.
