Holbrook was accompanied by her mother, Tiny Holbrook, and her nominating teacher, Sharon Kozura, while Doody was accompanied by his mother, Jeannine Doody and other family members, in addition to his nominating teacher, Garrett Martin.
The Rotary Spirit Student Award Program seeks to recognize student achievement in academics, citizenship and personal development across grades 9-12. Each award period September-October, November-December, January-February, and March-April, a girl and boy recipient are selected by the club from nominations provided by the high school faculty/staff.
Each recipient receives an achievement certificate and their photo is displayed on individual plaques at the school for a period following their award receipt. At the end of the school year, a Rotary Spirit Student of the Year is chosen by the club from amongst the eight period winners. The Student of the Year is recognized at a club breakfast, receives an achievement certificate, has their photo displayed on a perpetual plaque at the school for the following school year, and receives a $300 award at the school’s annual Awards Program.
