‘Students of the Week’ a positive feature in newspaper

Posted

It’s a pleasure to have the Students of the Week feature in The Leader. These young people are contributing to their schools and to their communities in their daily lives and probably think nothing of it. They are merely being themselves without realizing they are planting the seeds of example in their peers and nurturing their own growth.

And we adults in the community gain a more natural, positive perception of our youth. Good for us all.

Another observation: They look just like we did when we were teens. I hope we were as eager and enthusiastic. I hope we were as pleasant and gracious.
