Long Beach's Sophia Cited As Star Student: Here’s Why
We all know students who excel in academic, fine arts or volunteer service. Here's one local resident who is having an impact in Long Beach.
LONG BEACH, CA — Star Students are found in classrooms, on concert and theater stages and at debate lecterns, and out in the community doing good things to make life better for all of us.
Here at Patch, we've launched an initiative to help recognize Star Students, and we’re working to tell the stories of these outstanding kids to their neighbors.
This submission comes from Carlos Uribe who nominated Sofia (10th grade) of Long Beach. Uribe is Sofia's parent and admires her passion for the environment.
