Students are selected based upon excellence in any one or more of the following areas: academic, athletics, arts, or community service.
Sarah Lucas of Carroll Township is the daughter of Anna and Michael Lucas. She is a three season athlete who runs for the Ringgold cross country, indoor track, and outdoor track and field teams. Sarah currently holds three individual track and field school records, the indoor 800 m, the indoor 1 mile, and the outdoor 800 m, and recently qualified for the PIAA State Cross Country Championship.
Serving as a counselor for the Ringgold Cross Country Camp enabled her to share her love of running with younger runners. As a volunteer for the South Hills Miracle League, she enjoyed working with disabled children, which is her career goal. Her favorite high school memory was winning consecutive girls cross country sections with her team. After high school, Sarah plans to attend college to study biology and psychology to pursue a career as a pediatric occupational therapist.
Sarah Hetzler of Monongahela is the daughter of Rob and Shelly Hetzler. Music is a significant part of Sarah’s life; she plays the piano, harp, clarinet, steel drums, marimba and tenor saxophone. Sarah served as the drum major for the marching band, and also participates in the school’s concert band, jazz band, harp ensemble, indoor percussion and musical orchestra pit, and sings in the youth choir at her church.
Teaching Sunday School lessons to younger children in her church is her favorite community service activity and her favorite high school memory is performing during football seasons with fellow band members. After high school, Sarah plans to attend college to study music education, although she has not yet decided on a college.
Chartered in 1921, the Rotary Club of Monongahela welcomes prospective members and guests to attend one of its weekly meetings, which are held on Thursdays at noon at the Hill’s Restaurant in Monongahela. The Club performs numerous community service projects.
