High School Junior Helps Refugees: Farmington Star Student

FARMINGTON, CT — Star Students are found in classrooms, on concert and theater stages and at debate lecterns, and out in the community doing good things to make life better for all of us.

Here at Patch, we've launched an initiative to help recognize Star Students, and we’re working to tell the stories of these outstanding kids to their neighbors.

This submission comes from Evan Goldstein who nominated son Grayden from Farmington, a high school junior.
