Congratulations to the Riley County High School Student of the Month for September, Jacob Wendland!
Jacob, a Junior, has earned a cumulative GPA of 3.78 and is currently a member of FFA, Band, FBLA, Pep Club, FCA, and Tri-M.
Here is what Mrs. Lloyd had to say: “Jacob is the first to arrive, last to leave, and shares his big energy the entire time the band is together. His attentiveness and knowledge allow him to anticipate underclassmen issues or questions and he addresses them in a timely manner. At the same time, he takes care of everything he needs. He is very encouraging to all those around him, and exudes positive energy. Both as President of Tri-M and without an official title in band, Jacob does what is right and does it well!”
Congrats Jacob and Go Falcons!
