Lucas has earned the students’ respect by setting goals, limits and by being a positive role model,” said Diane Schleicher, kindergarten teacher.
“Lucas challenges himself in the classroom taking many college courses where he excels. Lucas has always challenged himself in everything he does and strives to do the best he can,” said Special Education teacher and coach Adam Gerads. “What makes Lucas’ success in the classroom more impressive is that he is a three-sport athlete, he is involved in student council and he volunteers many hours within the school and the community.
