The Elks of Wareham/New Bedford Lodge No. 1548 sponsors the Elks Student of the Month and Student of the Year Awards for students enrolled in local area high schools. The criteria used in nominating a student includes a student who excels in scholarship, citizenship, performing arts, fine arts, hobbies, athletics, church, school and community service, industry and farming.
We congratulate Senior Luke Couto of Mattapoisett for being selected as Student of the Month for January by the Old Rochester Regional High School Faculty and Staff. Luke has great character and consistently helps the students around him with tough material when the opportunity arises without being asked to do so. He also is a fantastic actor who has earned a lead in every single school play since he arrived at ORR. He is a great kid with a great future and a great representative of what a student at Old Rochester can and should be.
