Rotary Club of Westerville December 2025 Students of the Month

The Rotary Club of Westerville recognized its December 2025 Students of the Month during the club luncheon at The Medallion Club Dec. 4.

Throughout the school year, from October through May, the Club honors four students from each local high school. Working with the school principals and counselors, one student each month is chosen from Westerville Central, Westerville North, Westerville South and St. Francis DeSales high schools.

The students, their parents, and the school administrators are introduced and honored at a Rotary Club luncheon each month.
