Fifty Lampeter-Strasburg (L-S) High School seniors made their first of four visits to Hans Herr Elementary third-graders in October as this year's league of High School Heroes. They handed out trading cards and brought show-and-tell-style favorite items. Each Hero sat down with several small groups of third-graders to discuss their high school lives, including future plans, hobbies, and personal best practices.
Teachers nominate High School Heroes at the end of junior year, and rising seniors are invited during the summer. Heroes train to be mentors by participating in a series of lessons based on positive decision making and drug- and alcohol-free lifestyles. High School Heroes have varied interests and extracurricular activities, including sports, music, agriculture, and academics, so that every elementary school child can feel connected and inspired.
The 2019-20 High School Heroes are Alex Baker, Seth Beers, Andrew Bliss, Will Bray, Lauren Breneman, Luke Brodersen, Isabel Brown, Logan Burig, Lexi Campbell, Sophia Campbell, Namyah Crespo, Allyson Deihl, Corinna Dienner, Gabby Drumm, Jose Estevez, Christian Garver, Colleen Gilbert, Micah Gordley, Maddie Helm, Jess Herr, Kyra Hersh, Calvin Hill, Lillian Hoke, Nora Holmes, Emma Houck, Grant Kerchner, Taso Kovack, Darin Landis, Joel Lapp, Anne Leaman, Kenzie Lefever, Allyson Lindsley, Jordan Marcroft, Oliver Marvin, Emma Medlock, Anthony Milazzo, Lily Nauman, Jillian Pontz, Abbie Powell, Danae Ranck, Arielis Rivera, Aaron Rockensock, Fabiola Rodriguez, Nate Royer, Gabe Sanderson, Hannah Schultheis, Caleb Smoker, Donovan Thomann, Lexi Wagner, and Andrew Wittemann.
