Christopher is 8 years old and currently a 3rd grader at Parkside Elementary. He became a Club member in 2nd grade and was selected as this month’s Face of Great Futures because “he is so kind and always has a smile on his face,” stated Miss Madisyn, extension director. “Christopher likes to help translate for younger Spanish speaking members, which is so helpful. He is also a great listener and always goes above and beyond!” Let’s get to know Christopher!
