Logan Selph is graduating at the top of his class from the Early College High School at BCC and has already been published in a scientific journal out of Harvard. His numerous science club activities and awards have allowed him to share his passion with younger students to get them interested in the subject.

Brooke Kesky is the salutatorian of her class and has earned an Associate of Arts degree at BCC.  She has held numerous leadership roles through the Student Government Association, Key Club International, local scholarship pageants, and as a children’s ministry leader.

Our fourth, previously announced Good Citizen Award winner from South Brunswick High School was Elizabeth Pratt of Southport.  We are proud to support all of these fine students and look forward to hearing much more about their future success. 

Unfortunately,  the photos that DAR Good Citizen High School Chair, Jo-Ann Alford included with the wonderful article could not be included in the article, but  Public Relations Chair, Teresa McLamb will send this press release with photos. So, look for it when you read out local newspapers.
