Accomplishment: On March 21, 2011 Savannah was the recipient of the Student of the Month Award given by the Peachtree Corners Rotary Club. The award was presented at a luncheon held at the Carlisle House in Historic Norcross.

Key to Awesomeness: Savannah is an avid soccer player and enjoys playing outside and listening to music. She was awarded the Student of the Month Award from the Rotary Club of Peachtree Corners for her strong leadership skills, academic success, and for possessing those certain and special characteristics that are necessary to be a model student.  Savannah consistently demonstrates traits of honesty, respect, responsibility, cooperation, kindness, perseverance, and courage. She is extremely motivated to do well in school and serves as a positive and helpful role model for her peers.  Savannah is also very passionate about caring for our environment. On a recent camping trip, she enlisted the help of her 9-year-old brother to spend the first 30 minutes of the trip collecting trash along the beach in hopes that “Mother Earth” would be happy.  She is a special student and will continue to make a major contribution to our community as she grows.
