The Superior Rotarians have been busy this month, donating to the JFK Elementary third grade students a dictionary to assist them with their school work, working on having a Facebook page, and hosting lunch with Superior Students of the Month. They are also planning an upcoming training program that will be held to help the Superior Rotarians with strategic and thoughtful group planning. The Superior Rotary group also has a new President Elect, Willa Ficarra. This group has been growing and they look forward to progressing and making a difference in the community.
Each month the Superior Rotary hosts the Superior Jr/Sr High Students of the Month at Los Hermanos. After a nice luncheon the students draw for certificates, coupons, etc., from local merchants and each quarter the rotary will choose from the accumulated students of the month and draw for a Tablet. This first quarter the winner is Stevie Denogean. Stevie was very excited and happy to be the winner of the 7” Tablet.
For the month of October the Superior Jr/Sr High students of the month are: Cedric Mendoza who attends the eighth grade, his parents are Christine and Robert Alvarez. Cedric is involved with basketball and football, he would like a career as a football coach or player in the NFL; Kreona Hayes attends the seventh grade, her parents are Gary and Amber Hayes, she is involved with volleyball, basketball and softball and would like to attend ASU; Gabriella Salcido who attends the 11th grade, her parents are Joseph and Dora Salcido, she participates in volleyball, softball, basketball, Lady Dragon Club Softball, CVIT, Student Council, Math Club, French Club, Robotics and FCCLA.
