Clinton Rotary Club's Morgan School March 2015 Student of the Month

March 2015 Clinton Rotary Club’s Morgan School Student of the Month, Karli Robertson.

Each month during the school year, Clinton Rotary Club celebrates a Morgan School Student of the Month by hosting a dinner in honor of the student and presents a plaque with the name of each Student of the Month engraved on individual name-plates. The plaque is kept on display at the school. Every Student of the Month is given a Rotary pen, “Four Way Test” coin and a framed certificate. On March 26, 2015, Clinton Rotary Club celebrated Morgan School’s Student of the Month, Senior Karli Robertson. It was an exciting evening for all. Nominating Teacher, Jan O’Brien, introduced Karli and gave a wonderful presentation of this student’s accomplishments.

Karli Robertson is a recognized student leader and role model. During her sophomore year, she examined her priorities and values. She vowed to be a positive person and make a difference in the Morgan School Community. She utilized her own personal experiences to speak out against bullying at a large school assembly. For the past several years, she has participated in a summer ninth grade transitional program called STEP as well as Ninth Grade Mentoring. Karli has attended two all day leadership workshops for mentoring plus three leadership workshops for STEP. She is a student that can be counted on to be an upbeat influence on other students. During STEP, she has led small groups of ninth graders in team building activities. During the Spring of last year, she led an assembly program for grades nine and ten. She acted as the moderator with a panel in which both the principal and guidance counselor were members with students

Outgoing, Karli has also participated in the yearly school musicals in a variety of roles. She is an open person who meets every new situation head on and is always willing to try new activities, such as Cheerleading this year!

Karli has a zest for learning and life. As a Senior, Karli will continue her education in nursing. Given her personal attributes plus her desire to heal others, Karli Robertson is well suited for this profession and one who truly exemplifies Rotary International’s Motto of “Service Above Self”.
