The Prescott Community Club Student of the Week for Jan. 15 is Prescott High School freshman Benjamin Barker, nominated by science teacher Cameron Meyers.

“I chose Ben as he is a great student, a leader in the classroom, and a role model for others around him,” Meyers said. “Ben isn’t afraid to ask questions if he is confused about something. When he sees other students around him struggling with a concept he will go over and help them (oftentimes explaining a concept in a way that works better for those students than what I could think of). Ben is always respectful towards others, himself, and his environment. He picks up after himself if he makes a mess. If he makes a mistake, he corrects it and perseveres through, he doesn’t shut down. Ben has an incredible amount of resilience, respect, and forward thinking for a freshman.”

Benjamin is the son of Joe & Krista Barker. He participates in football, swimming and the school musical. He also teaches swimming lessons and enjoys playing video games. He hopes to graduate college one day.
