'Heartfelt Soul' Christina Recognized As Wayne Star Student
We all know students who excel in academic, fine arts or volunteer service. Here's one local resident who is having an impact in Wayne.

WAYNE, 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 Nermin, who nominated daughter Christina of Wayne. Nermin highlighted Christina's great sportsmanship and also her involvement in the community, making bracelets to donate to St. Joseph’s Hospital in both Paterson and Wayne.

Why do you believe the star local student should be recognized?
Christina works hard both academically and in sports. She has such great sportsmanship, exhibits strong teamwork and always strives for her best. Reason to nominate her is she has such a heartfelt soul. She is always looking ways to help others and her community. Last few years, she makes bracelets every holiday season .. upwards to 80+ do they can be donated to pediatric unit at St.Joseph’s hospital both in Paterson and Wayne locations. She helped her father collect Thanksgiving and food items to donate to Oasis in Paterson to ensure she had a helping hand in assisting those in need. She is a blessing and so very thankful to have such an amazing star ⭐️
