🎓❤ Dorothy Yarbrough | RSD Profile of the Graduate Story
The Power of being an Innovative Achiever & Storyteller
For Dwight Elementary School 4th grader, Dorothy Yarbrough, goals and aspirations reach outside of academic knowledge. Whether it's helping friends with classwork, leading with positivity, or bringing laughter, Dorothy sure knows how to achieve greatness.
Dwight Elementary Principal, Krista Malin, says “Dorothy stands out in such a positive way at our school. I’ve never seen her without a smile on her face. She displays integrity, selflessness, and a servant’s heart in all that she does. She is a role model for others in and out of our school.”
From her storytelling abilities to her ray of positivity and kindness, Dorothy has made a great impact on us all!
❤ Dorothy, thank you for being a great example for your fellow peers!
