WALL, 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 Cynthia Dwyer who nominated Alexandra, 12th Grade, of Wall.

Alexandra is almost finished obtaining her Girl Scouts Gold Award focused on encouraging women in politics. She's interested in politics herself and plans to major in that area in college - and she's witty and funny, too.

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

Alexandra is an outstanding example of a young lady focused on academics and giving back to her community. She is currently in the final stages of her Girl Scout Gold Award where she is encouraging young women to explore roles in politics. Recently accepted into Boston College, she’s looking forward to majoring in political science and going on to law school someday. She is a young lady on the rise and will no doubt be a force of good in the world.

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

She is extremely witty and funny and well liked by all!

Congratulations on your achievements, and all of our best wishes to you in the future, Alexandra, 12th Grade!
