Kasey Schmotzer and Josiah Green are Seniors who were nominated by Ms. Lindsey Chastain and Mr. Chad Lemons.
Congratulations to Kasey and Josiah for being Mead Rotary Students of the Month!
Kasey and Josiah shared a little bit about themselves during the recognition ceremony that was held at the High School.
Kasey Schmotzer:
"As a student at Mead I have been involved since freshman year. I was in Student Council during freshman and sophomore year and I have also been a member of NHS. I always make sure to make it to the football games and be a part of the student section to support our teams. I am also an active part of our art program. Outside of school I have done various volunteer work through multiple senior living communities. I am currently employed as a barista at The Hard Bean coffee shop in Ft.Lupton. After high school I plan on moving to Florida with my family where I will start my college career at Florida State College at Jacksonville for two years and then transfer to Flagler College to major in Hospitality and Tourism Management. I also hope to get to be a part of Disney’s semester-long college program."
Josiah Green:
"Hi, my name is Josiah Green, I am in Mrs. Vanzant's SSN class. I have Autism. I love Unified Sports. I played flag football, soccer, and basketball. I also am in Unified Percussion. I played on the Longmont Community softball team Niwot Nightmares last summer. I love Unified Percussion at Mead High School and also Ironworks. I like so many of my teachers, they care alot about me. Mrs. Vanzant teaches most of my classes and Ms. Bradt teaches English. They are very nice. I also like all of the paras who help me: Ms. Fox, Ms. Anderson, Ms. Kraft, Ms. G and Ms. A. Mr. Lemons is one of my favorite teachers, he teaches Unified Percussion. I also really like Mr. Tatam and Mr. Palko. When I grow up I want to be a Baker, I love to decorate cakes. I will go to the LSA program first, and then maybe take classes to become a Baker. I will probably need a coach to help me learn baking skills. I really love Disney. I also love to play the piano. I have a lot of great friends at Mead High School.
Thank You for nominating me for this award."
