Middle School Honoree – River Smith
River is always kind, supportive, and encouraging to his classmates. He seeks ways to help others without being instructed to do so. He takes initiative when there is a need. He always has a positive attitude and works hard in class. He doesn't pass up an opportunity to share a joke and make someone laugh.

“River has a contagious positive attitude,” pointed out Mrs. Chelsie Pratt, one of River’s 6th-grade teachers. “You can always find him with a smile on his face ready to work hard to accomplish a task and help someone when there is a need.”
