Star Student: Andrew, Marlboro Area, Excels In History, Will Teach

MARLBORO-COLTS NECK, NJ — 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 Maria Greenstein who nominated Andrew, BA, of the Marlboro area.

Andrew has graduated from college and will be a Social Studies teacher. His research about New Jersey's history as a slave state is indicative of his pursuit of knowledge and truth, Maria says.
