Each month of the school year, the Lakeville Rotary Club recognizes students of the senior class who demonstrate “Service Above Self”.
For the month of November Jacob Welch has been chosen as the November Rotary Students of the Month for Lakeville South High School.
Jacob’s parents are Catherine Welch and William Welch III, and his Dean is Paul Donner. Jacob’s resume is very impressive. Over the course of his academic career, Jacob has taken numerous AP courses and Honors Courses. He has met the requirements to participate in our National Honors Society. He qualified as a National Merit Scholarship Semifinalist. Jacob competes in Alpine Skiing and he serves our band program as a Drum Major. Regardless of how many things Jacob has on his plate, he has managed to maintain an extremely high GPA, which will allow him to be accepted into most any college.
Dean Donor said, "While working with Jacob at LSHS, I have been most impressed with his ability to provide service above self, no matter how busy he is. I routinely see him at events, supporting his peers, leading our band, and even supporting our staff. He finds time to volunteer for his church and to teach youth at band camps. Whatever the activity or cause, Jacob commits his time with a positive attitude and naturally leads his peers."
