Shannon ES Student Developing Leadership Skills through Mentorship and Community Service
Lucas Barnes, a 6th grader at Shannon Elementary, takes his dream to be a Marine seriously. He is very involved in community service through Young Marines, and as a mentor, he uses these traits learned in his classroom with younger students at Shannon.
He recently completed a research unit in his writing class on teen activism, focusing on the fact that many teen activists are usually involved in Community Service as well.
Lucas certainly has a bright future ahead of him!
