Every week 12 News features a Standout Student from the Northwest Metro. These are students who challenge themselves to go way beyond what’s required. They excel in science, math, arts, or theater. Some have overcome obstacles to get where they are. Others take on the toughest aerodynamics, medicine and physics assignments. Standout Students are recommended to us by school officials.
