Perseverance Is Key For Barnstable Star Student
We all know students who excel in academics, fine arts or volunteer service. Here's one local resident who's having an impact in Barnstable.

BARNSTABLE, MA — 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 Hope Freeman who nominated Maia Bothwell grade 9 of Barnstable-Hyannis.
