Yorkville 2nd Grader Cited As Star Student: Here's Why
We all know students who excel in academics, fine arts or volunteer service. Here's one local who is having an impact in Yorkville.

YORKVILLE, 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 Eve Erbach who nominated her daughter, Morgan, a second grader in Yorkville.
