Congratulations to Torin Sheaves, Riley County High School’s Student of the Month for May!
Torin, 11th Grade, has earned a Cumulative GPA of 3.25 with a 4.0 GPA during his Junior year! Torin is involved in extracurricular activities; FFA, Football, and Wrestling. Here is what our staff members had to say about Torin!
Mr. Eslit – “Torin is a hard worker and a good role model. Today he came in and advocated for another student exhibiting qualities deserving of Student of the Month. He tries to do things the right way and I want him to know it doesn’t go unnoticed.”
Mrs. Taylor – “Torin is such a caring, honest, and positive role model. He goes out of his way to advocate for others. Torin learned sign language to assist a friend. And then when you see this guy, he always has a smile for you. It has been great to see him grow into the intelligent, caring young man he is. Torin involves himself in football and works a bunch at Gambinos. Even at work, he represents himself well!”
Mr. Willimon – “Torin is respectful, hardworking and compassionate about his peers at Riley County. On and off the field Torrin leads by example and sets a great example for students at Riley County High School.”
