City Council member Suzanne Jenkins (center) recognized Crown Point Elementary students Bryanna McDonald and Dezmond Upshaw as “Rising Stars” Monday at City Hall. Both students participate in the Community Connections after-school program, and their awards were sponsored by Waste Management. Upshaw is in the fifth grade and posted the highest score in his school on the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test last year. McDonald is on the third grade honor roll and has been involved in Girls Scouts for three years. “This kind of private/public partnership makes a great city,” said Jenkins.
