Student of the Month Night
Each month the Kutztown Rotary Club recognizes one outstanding student each from Kutztown Area High School and Brandywine Heights Area High School. These students are selected by their school administrators and are often picked for significant improvement or overcoming challenges, accomplishments in academics, school participation, and community contributions. These students never fail to impress Rotarians with their positive impact on our community. Dinner for the student, two parents, and one school administrator will be paid for by the club - additional family and representatives from the school are always welcome.  
 
 
Meet at 6:00 to get a drink and socialize if you wish. We order dinner at 6:20, followed by invocation and club news. 
If you plan to join by zoom, please email Melissa or Rose.
