The Prescott Kiwanis Student of the Week for Dec. 7 is sophomore Riley Andersen, who was nominated by math teacher Bryce McCauley.

“Riley is a student who stands out due to her consistent work habits, respectful and positive demeanor, and high levels of achievement in the classroom,” McCauley said. “She has given herself the opportunity to take AP Statistics as a sophomore this year through her hard work in summer Geometry before her freshman year and in Algebra II during her freshman year. Thus far, she has met every challenge that AP Stats has thrown her way and continues to demonstrate her strong character and work ethic through the manner in which she approaches class every day.”

Riley is the daughter of Kristen and Travis Andersen. The honor roll student is a member of the Prescott High School band. She also participates in figure skating, swimming and works at a local restaurant. She enjoys traveling, spending time with family, friends and her dog, and cooking and baking. In the future, she plans to attend a four-year college to become an accountant or an actuary.
