The Rotary Club of Everett on January 21st honored three local high school students as Rotary Students of the Month.

Cascade High School’s student of the month is Jasmine Brar, a senior AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination) student. As a second-generation immigrant and first-generation college student, Jasmine plans to pursue a career in education where she can help students, especially those who may deal with some of the same challenges she has faced. Jasmine was also instrumental in starting Cascade’s first Peer Mediation team.
Everett High’s student of the month is Rhys Wells-Edwards. His activities at EHS including jazz band, swimming, Honor Society and his service as ASB President. Rhys is also a leader on the Everett Community College campus as Math and Science Tutor. He fluttered his wings this past November as he promoted the school’s food drive wearing a turkey costume.
Sequoia High’s student of the month is MoMo (Monica) Smith. MoMo is a hard-working student who not only puts great pride into passing all her classes, but also works full-time most weeks. During the recent snow days several coworkers called in unable to work, and MoMo walked more than five miles to help cover shifts. She is a team player, and someone always willing to help a classmate.
