Windcrest Optimist Club celebrates future leaders

The Windcrest Optimist Club held its monthly meeting on April 17 to honor the future leaders of our community as part of its Student of the Month program. The program focuses on students in the Roosevelt High School cluster schools. These students earn this selection by demonstrating characteristics of the Optimist Club, and/or significant improvement in any area of their education such as: dependability, excelling at reading, positive attitudes, willingness to help others, kindheartedness, and demonstrating responsibility. A school representative introduces the students and their families, in addition to highlighting the student’s achievements.

Educators from each school presented their student providing the reasons for his/her selection and Club President Jeanie Weidenbach presented each with a plaque. Family members and special friends were invited to participate in the ceremony. Mackenzia Wilson, Royal Ridge Elementary School, was unable to attend but was recognized and will receive her award at her campus. Family members and special friends were invited to participate in the ceremony.
