The Rotary Club of Morgan Hill recently honored eight local middle and high school students, and one adult education student, for their outstanding achievements and contributions.
More than presenting a beautiful plaque and a crisp $50 bill to deserving students, Rotarians offer a moment in the middle of hectic schedules to supportive parents, grandparents, educators and guardians to see their children in a setting that they will remember fondly and proudly.
