Christian Griffith- Straight A’s.
Christian Griffith, a tenth grader at Our Lady of Mercy High School, received straight A’s this semester, despite taking difficult subjects including Honors Algebra II and Honors Chemistry. He is also very active in his church, Sts. Peter and Paul Catholic Church, serving as a volunteer at the Gregg’s Food Pantry and a teaching assistant for the preschool religious education class. Despite breaking his leg this Fall during baseball practice, Christian has remained devoted to practicing baseball; throwing a ball while seated in a chair. He will be recovered and ready for baseball this spring.
