CEVEC Senior is Named Student of the Month
Nicholas Cruz honored at Mayfield Board of Education meeting.
The family of Nicholas Cruz moved here from California when he was in the eighth grade because of the hearing impaired program.
His success in the program resulted in being named the Cuyahoga East Vocational Education Consortium Student of the Month. Superintendent Phillip Price and school board members presented him with a proclamation at a recent meeting.
Price noted that Nicholas served an internship at Progressive Insurance and turned a temporary job into permanent employment at Marshalls because of his work ethic.
"Nick's managers and teachers describe him as a hard worker, responsible and willing to work through the challenges that are presented to him," Price said.
Nicholas will be graduating this year and plans to move back to California and seek new employment.
