'He's My Hero,' Mom Says Of Plainfield Star Student

PLAINFIELD, IL — 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 Jamie who nominated her son, Aidan, a sophomore at Plainfield Central High School.

Son

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

Aidan is a straight-A student. But besides the high achievement in his school work, he is a selfless young man who goes above what is expected and volunteers his time filling in when mom and dad are at work. He's a great role model for his younger brother and cousins. He never complains or has a bad thing to say about anyone. He's my hero.

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

He's a brilliant young man.

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