Rebecca Is 'Always Willing To Help': Toms River Star Student

TOMS RIVER, 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 Kristin Strehle, who nominated her daughter, Rebecca, who's an eighth grader from Toms River.

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

She is always quick to lend a hand to help everyone around her. She mowed our elderly neighbor’s lawn without even being asked. Rebecca should be honored as a star student because she is always eager and willing to help those around her in her community.

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

Rebecca is a sweet and caring teenager who is eager to help anyone during any kind of circumstance, good or bad.

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