Ottawa Township High School (OTHS) Senior Brooklyn Byone is the recipient of the OTHS Educational Foundation Student of the Month Leadership Award for April. She was selected for the honor from the Science Department of OTHS.
“Brooklyn is an exceptional student whose maturity, work ethic, and character consistently exceed those of her peers,” her science teachers remarked in their nomination for the award. “She leaves a lasting impression on both her classmates and teachers. Her dedication, time management skills, and positive demeanor elevate every classroom she joins.”
“Throughout her time at Ottawa Township High School, Brooklyn has earned academic all-conference honors as a four-year athlete in both soccer and tennis—achieving conference titles and qualifying for state competition. She has also served in leadership roles for our Honor Society, Character Counts Club, Future Medical Professionals Club, and Foreign Language Club,” they said.
“Brooklyn has balanced these commitments while maintaining the highest class rank in the school. She has worked multiple local jobs and volunteered extensively—coaching in our award-winning community soccer program, refereeing games, and assisting at concession stands. Her ability to manage such a demanding schedule with grace and excellence speaks volumes about her character and drive. Brooklyn is a remarkable student, and we are excited to see the incredible things she will do in the future.”
