As one of our youth support projects, our club recognizes outstanding students for their community service and academic achievements with our Student of the Month program. The students are from three area schools, Carman/Ainsworth, Powers and Swartz Creek and are selected for the honor by their teachers and staff members. At the end of the school year one graduating senior from each school is selected from the monthly honorees to be the Student of the Year and to win a $1,000 scholarship.
 
This year's winners are (L-R) Anna Stafford from Powers, Lorelei Thorton from Carman/Ainsworth and Nolan Barta from Swartz Creek. Our Rotary club congratulates them and thanks their parents and teachers who raised and educated our leaders of the future.
