Aiden 'Has A Heart Of Gold': Westfield Star Student

WESTFIELD, 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 Arlene Steinwald who nominated her daughter Aiden of Westfield.

How do you know the star local student?

Daughter

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

Aiden is an example of a leader that indeed leads by example. She has a quiet confidence and doesn't like the spotlight, but she consistently strives to do her best at whatever she does. This is her motto, how she's wired, and no one can distract her from giving her all. It's her special power that she's had since she was super young. She has A+s in school and extracurriculars including forensics and drama and is high performing in her school + club volleyball teams. On the weekends, she altar serves at Holy Trinity Church. She has a heart of gold and keeps her achievements quiet, mostly because she thinks she can always do better.

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

She's a quiet achiever. She sets her goal in her head and goes for it.

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