Excited to announce our @forrthecity Spotlight Student of the Month for May, Ms. Presley Ava Mitchell. Presley was told she would have childhood health problems that would prevent her from having a sense of normalcy. Yet, she has overcome them all! Presley attends Moore Square and has been on the A/B honor roll every quarter. Presley is thankful for her village – Stanley and Shirley Mitchell, her Aunt Laura Davis, Ashley Love, Brandon Davis, Donald and Patricia Carrington, her principal Shane Barham, and Dr. Harold Overcash. Presley aids her friends in mental health crises, and has helped her mother be more aware of those signs. Please join us in congratulating Presley on her Student of the Month selection!
