The JC Breakfast Optimist Club recognized a St. Xavier’s Catholic Schools Student Of The Quarter on April 19. The teaching staff and Principal nominated Casey Section-Snow for his optimistic approach to learning, improving himself, and being a positive influence on others at school and in the community.
Casey is the President of the Student Council, spearheaded the refurbishing of the weight room at the school, is a dedicated photographer and yearbook staff member. He also participated in basketball and is an integral part of the Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA). Sandra Becker, one of Casey’s teachers stated that “he always wants to understand the why.”
Casey is involved in the community as a representative from St. Xavier’s Schools on the Main Street group in Junction City. He will graduate in May from St. Xavier’s High School, plans to attend Cloud County Community College for his General Education classes, and then transfer to Kansas State to possibly major in some form of engineering. “That is still to be determined,” he said.
