Whiz Kid: Local Youngster Reads to Little Brother

Oak View Elementary School 1st grader Aaron Smith reads to his little brother, Averi, during the Bolingbrook school's Open House Aug. 26.

Each week, Patch will seek suggestions from readers for individual kids, youth groups, teens, and even sports teams that wow us with their accomplishments.

We want to hear about these amazing children and teens and select one each week as the Patch Whiz Kid. Know a great kid who made Eagle Scout? Did your local soccer team take the championship? Or maybe your youngster just did all of his or her chores this weekend? They can all be our next Patch Whiz Kid honoree.

Submit your nomination in our comment box below or e-mail the information to Local Editor Brian Feldt at brianf@patch.com. Be sure to include all of the following information included below.
