Samuel Brescia has been named Rotary Club of Castle Rock’s Student of the Month for February.
Brescia, a senior at Castle View High School, was introduced to the club by CVHS Principal Rex Corr. Corr said Brescia was a model student and a person who makes a great contribution to his school and his community.
He said Brescia was a master web developer and lead a team that redesigned the school Webpage. He also is in Boy Scouts and has won the Baden-Powell Community Service Badge.
 As part of his community service he built benches for a public space and helped repair bicycles for Project Recycle. He also served as president of his youth church group.
Corr said his teachers called Brescia a “leader of the pack” who could handle data and analytics easily to keep project on track. They also called him a responsible and mature student who was very strong in academics. He was on the Principal’s Honor Roll all four years of high school. He won the Pride of CV award and has never received less than an A in any class. His GPA is 4.518 and he has taken seven Advanced Placement classes. Beside that, Corr said, Brescia also works part time at UPS.
Brescia thanked the club for the honor and said he plans to attend BYU Provo and study bio-medical engineering after going on a mission. In his spare time, he said he likes to play football and tennis and watch Marvel movies.
