Bean named Rotary May Student of the Month
Dashayla Bean, a junior at Waynesville High School, has been named
the Rotary Student of the Month for May for representing the word
"responsibility." Her parents are Dash and Shantella Bean.
Bean is an outstanding student and carries a 4.13 grade point average,
is ranked in the top 5% of her class, and has a 97% attendance rate.
She is involved in track, NHS, FBLA, FCCLA, S2S and SGA as the junior
class vice president. She plans to become a physician's assistant.
Bean's nominator stated, "Dashayla is the first student I think
of when I think of the trait responsibility. She is my most dependable
student-the one I can count on to help me in any situation. Dashayla
is prepared daily and always working on assignments. When she finishes
my work, she pulls out work from anatomy or another class and continues
to work hard and study to get ahead. Dashayla has a goal to maintain
straight A's in all her classes this school year, and she will definitely
hit that goal, but she doesn't stop there. She continues to keep
working so she can achieve her dreams of going to college to become
a physician's assistant. Dashayla is quiet, but definitely one her
peers look at as a leader by example. She is involved in track,
BETA, SGA, NHS, and many other activities. Dashayla doesn't use
the excuse of being gone for these activities to slack in class,
she actually uses them to fuel herself in achieving higher standards
and always gets all assignments prior to her being gone. She is
definitely a role model for responsibility."
