Lydia Kimble of Rose Hill was chosen as the Driving Change Athlete of the Month for April. Kimble is the Student Body President for the Rockets and is also a member of the soccer team.

Kimble takes pride in being able to have some semblance of a normal school year for her fellow classmates, like a more traditional homecoming festivities in February.

“I think my lasting impact on this school year will be having events that were COVID-safe, but still being fun, and having some normalcy to this school year,” Kimble said.

Kimble said there are always areas for schools to improve and she has embraced the challenge of seeing those areas through this year.

“There are always things that can be improved in schools, and there are ideas students have that add great value to Rose Hill,” Kimble said. “Making people smile, and seeing them have fun, at events we put on throughout the year.”

Being back in school, after what happened last spring, Kimble has enjoyed her final year at Rose Hill and does not look back at what happened last March.

“I don’t think we should dwell on what happened last year, because it will not change anything,” Kimble said. “We just need to look forward to what we do get this school year.”
