DANBURY, CT — 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 Megan who nominated her son, Leland, a 3rd grade student in Danbury.

Why do you believe the star local student should be recognized?

My star student nominee should be recognized because he is a hardworking and kind individual both in and out of school. He does very well in school, is always giving his all, and trying his best. He is also very helpful at home too.

What's one thing you want everyone to know about the star local student?

He is an amazing and talented young boy.

Congratulations on your achievements, and all of our best wishes to you in the future, Leland!
