As the academic year comes to a close, schools across Round Rock Independent School District are celebrating mentors, partners and volunteers for their selfless donation of time, talents and treasure.
Each campus chose one individual or group to receive the honor of Campus Partner of the Year, Volunteer of the Year, Mentor of the Year and Youth Volunteer of the Year. Campuses honored these individuals and groups at various on-campus celebrations.
“We fortunate to live in such a caring community,” Community Partnerships Supervisor Rachael Sefton said. “At Round Rock ISD, we value the opportunity to involve our community with our schools and we realize and appreciate the value our partners and volunteers bring to the District.”
