Tell us about your star student's accomplishments and why they deserve to be recognized on Patch!

Joey has been the class president for the Class of 2027 for the past two years. He has been organizing successful fundraisers during that time, working to support his class. Joey was also elected to the New Jersey State Student Council board as treasurer this past January. He is now running for national student government president, where he is competing against one other candidate from Massachusetts. Voting for that national presidency runs from April 20 to April 30.

Joey is also part of TSA at Howell High School, where he competes against other schools in his chosen category. Joey is someone who makes sure everyone is included and cares a lot about his school and peers. He has probably been one of the most dedicated class presidents I’ve worked with, both in leadership and personality. He is someone you would want your son to be like. I can’t say enough about Joey.

Joey also teaches at a karate school in Howell, where he is a black belt and working toward the next level.

What three words best describe your star student?

Dedicated, determined, amazing.
