What a STAR! STAR Student Evan Fix and STAR Teacher Andrea Stumpf

Written by Newspaper Staff Reporter Derek Oliveros
Earlier this month, senior Evan Fix was awarded with the Star Student award for Allatoona. When asked how Evan felt, he said, “I wasn’t really expecting it and I was surprised I won something because usually, I am just under someone else when it comes to things like this. I felt really honored and it is great that the school appreciates the students who actually prepare and do well on their SAT.” One opportunity that the Star Student has is to award their Star Teacher, and Evan chose Mrs. Andrea Stumpf to be Allatoona’s Star Teacher. When asked about the award, Mrs. Stumpf said that it “is an award given to the student who scores the highest score on an SAT in one sitting, and then that student chooses the teacher that they feel had the most impact on their ability to get that score.” Mrs. Stumpf can only describe being chosen to be Star Teacher as “shocked, because Evan... has so many teachers who made such a really strong impact on him, that for him to choose me, I really feel honored, that I was in part of that selection process.”
