She Is Resilient & Cares About Others: Stratford Star Student

STRATFORD, 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 Christina Shanahan, who nominated Julianna of Stratford.

How do you know the star local student?

I am one of her high school teachers.

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

Julianna is a resilient, caring student scholar who has overcome adversity. She has maintained a high grade point average while volunteering outside of school, competing in dance, and participating in clubs like National Honor's Society School.

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

Julianna is a thoughtful young adult that cares about others and participates in a peer tutoring program in school twice a week to help her fellow students in academics.

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