Megan Steinheimer Named Rotary's Chaparral Student of the Month

Pictures from left to right: Chaparral HS Student of the Month, pictured, Dan- father, Jackie - mother, Megan and Rotarian Dennis Brewster.

Megan Steinheimer was named Rotary Student of the Month from Chaparral High School. Theater has been a major focus in Megan's high school career.Teacher David Petersen tells us that Megan has excelled behind the scenes as a set designer, stage manager and technician. She handles a rigorous academic schedule with many AP classes, is a member of the National Honor Society.

English teach, Damon Larson tells us that Megan is phenomenal and is a model student - wise, thoughtful, diligent, industrious and intrinsically motivated to learn. Teacher Lisa Nolte said that Megan scored a "5" on the Advanced Placement exam, which is very difficult to do. Less than 6% of all students this exam nationally get a "5". Steve Block, a social studies teach, told us that Megan's work ethic is second to none!

It was a pleasure to have Megan at our Rotary meeting.
