Star Student: Giovanni Excels On The Ice In Springfield
We all know students who excel in academic, fine arts or volunteer service. Here's one who is having an impact in Springfield.

SPRINGFIELD, PA — 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 Jaclyn Rhoads who nominated Giovanni, 10th Grade at The Christian Academy, of Springfield.
