We are proud to announce that at the end of July, recent graduate Brody Spies was recognized as Honorable Mention for the Youth Iowa Character Award at Prairie Meadows Events Center in Altoona based on his excellence in displaying the 6 pillars of character: trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring, and good citizenship. Only one youth receives the Character Award and only two youth receive the Honorable Mention Character Award per year in the whole state of Iowa. Brody has earned this prestigious award because of his personality, volunteering, leadership and effort he has exhibited in our school and community. His parents are John and Tonya Spies.
