Here’s Why Anna Was Shouted Out As A Malverne/Lynbrook Star Student

MALVERNE-LYNBROOK, NY — 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 Veronica Nealon who nominated Anna, a college freshman from Malverne-Lynbrook.

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

She successfully petitioned Town of Hempstead officials to provide beach access mats at all TOH beaches to provide shore access to all those with mobility limitations.

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

Anna, a freshman at the University of South Carolina, is grateful for her project's success in improving the quality of life for those in her community and along with Councilwoman Melissa Miller, has corresponded with the New York State Assembly to follow the TOH's lead and provide shoreline access mats at all New York State beaches.

Congratulations on your achievements, and all of our best wishes to you in the future,Anna; College Freshman!
