SENIOR ✈️ ACE AWARD: Congratulations to Hunter Vrudney, who was nominated by 🌎 Social Studies Teacher Mrs. Wirthwein. This award recognizes our Seniors for their Achievement - Citizenship - Excellence, as well as the teachers and staff members who honored them.
⭐ Mrs. Wirthwein said, “Hunter has been an integral part of the Kenston Center Stage Tech crew for four years. Stage lights are notoriously temperamental creatures, requiring some delicate handling, and the occasional swift smack. Hunter has worked tirelessly to make sure that we always have the light we need. He has taken lamps apart and put them back together, changed bulbs and cords, and overall been a person we could always depend on. If you need something done - Hunter is the man for the job.” #KenstonClassof2026 #KenstonACEs #KenstonSchools #KenstonPositivelyInspiring #KenstonBombersFlyTogether #KenstonPEAK
