Volunteer wins Presidential Award


We believe that service learning is an important part of an education. So we’re thrilled to announce that Braxton Beers, a recent Alta High graduate, has received a 2014 Presidential Volunteer Service Award. He received the award for his thousands of service hours to CSD schools, the community, students with special needs, the Make-A-Wish Foundation, the Utah Food Bank, and the homeless shelter. The service award is a commendation created in 2003 by former president George W. Bush to recognize the contributions volunteers make in their communities. “It’s a pretty rare award,” Beers said. “I’m very honored by it.” Beers plans to attend Utah State University on full scholarship. Talk about #collegeready!
