JANUARY'S STUDENT OF THE MONTH: KYLE VAN LEER


Senior Kyle Van Leer from Hanover is Hanover High's Student of the Month for January.

Kyle is one of the founding members of Kids for a Cooler Planet which organized the use of green bags (fabric bags instead of plastic) at the Co-op grocery stores. Being civic and ecologically minded, he helped get two resolutions passed in NH and Vermont endorsing reusable bags. Kyle is on the Math team, is self-taught and fluent in sign language, and recently performed in “Fish Tale” with the Trumbull Hall troupe at the Richmond Middle School. Kyle is a fabulous student with an easy going and congenial demeanor who is admired by his peers and the staff at HHS.
