Brandon recieves Good Citizen of the year award!!!

Brandon was honored at Trost Elementary and given the "Good Citizen of the Year Award". In front of the entire school, Tammy Myers (pictured above with Brandon) gave a speech about Brandon and his dedication to being safe, respectful and above all "responsible". This year Brandon volunteered to tutor a 2nd grader in reading in the morning before school, gave up his lunch time recess to volunteer in a 1st grade classroom, coordinated a fundraiser on his own for Cares Northwest, and volunteered over 40 hours after school to help Tammy with the "Stay and Play" program. While kids were taking classes on everything from dance, to guitar, Brandon helped run snacks, make signs, put out cones for buses and direct children every Tuesday and Thursday after school! The principal of the school stated that Brandon is a role model for every student. He was given a certificate of honor as well as a $25 Borders gift certificate! We are SO proud of him!
