Through their many years of formal schooling, they are now at a point where smart decision making will be more critical than ever.
Through effective partnering between their schooling and a community’s caring, the hope would be that they will be products, if you will, of sound character, leadership, high values and possessing those qualities that would set them as examples for others to admire.
While many of them will still be clueless about surviving in the real world, for others, reality has probably come sooner than they would like and they already possess a maturity beyond their years.
The Rappahannock News would like to do a little boasting about some of the brightest stars out there and plans to feature ten in upcoming weeks.
If you are a teacher, a principal, a pastor, parent, neighbor or friend and you’d like to nominate a student who you believe possesses the academic and/or athletic accomplishments, attitude and character that make them truly outstanding, please let us know.
Please include their name, age, school, achievements, future plans and why you feel they’ll be shining for a long time.
Submit your nominations by June 1 to or mail to the Rappahannock News, P.O. Box 59, Washington, VA. 22747.
