The Next Step Magazine recently went in search of upstanding teenagers from across the United States. The search criteria included volunteer work, working a regular job while attending school, maintaining a stellar GPA, and kids who are all-around amazing.
They found Katherine Crocker.
The magazine’s annual Super Teens contest generated hundreds of applications from top students across the country.
Lakehill Preparatory School junior Katherine Crocker was selected as one of only 20 young Texans honored as a Super Teens Winner. Crocker said some of the qualities that help her stand out are her cheerful demeanor, dedication to her extracurricular activities, and leadership skills.
A seasoned performer, she has been involved in dance for 15 years and has studied piano for 11 years. An active Girl Scout for 11 years, Crocker recently earned the organization’s highest honor, the Gold Award.
While she plans to major in either nutrition or journalism in college [Editor’s note: nutrition, Katherine, nutrition … that way, you can eat], her love for dance and music could lead her to pursue those passions as a minor.
Winners of the contest were featured on the cover and inside the March edition of The Next Step Magazine. The magazine provides information on college planning, career choices, and life skills to help students plan their lives after high school.
Apparently, though, Crocker’s well on her way to a solid life plan.
Our thanks to Gigi Ekstrom, marketing director at Lakehill, for providing the words and picture.
