Helena Brennan, a senior at South High School, was selected as Laramie County School District 1’s Student of the Week for the week of Nov. 3.

Brennan was selected for exemplifying South’s core values of Honor, Enthusiasm, Responsibility and Determination (HERD). She is known for her diligence, positive attitude and willingness to help others.

“She is always willing to put best effort into her work. Even when she is struggling, she pushes through and makes sure to give her very best,” Keiko Hiranaka South Math Teacher said.

Brennan is a member of the leadership team, mentoring elementary students at Arp Elementary. She is also the captain of the color guard and a member of the cheer squad.

Brennan is enrolled in classes at Laramie County Community College and plans to graduate at the end of the semester. Following graduation, she plans to attend cosmetology school.

Brennan selected Keiko Hiranaka as her favorite teacher because she has helped Brennan understand math when she was struggling.
