Monmouth Academy has named senior Alicen Burnham as its February Student of the Month.
Burnham is a member of the Monmouth Academy Student Government, National Honor Society, Future Business Leaders of America, and the varsity soccer, cheerleading and track and field teams.
In presenting this award, Dr. Elizabeth Ross, Monmouth Academy math teacher, remarked, “Alicen is an extremely hard worker who is supportive of friends and teammates. She is a great leader and shows this everyday in her classes and extracurricular activities. As a co-editor of the 2021 yearbook, she has had her work cut out for her in this crazy year. She’s kept up with the task all while maintaining a high GPA, captain roles on both of her teams, and leadership positions in her many clubs,” according to a news release from the academy.
Burnham is the daughter of Leanne Burnham and Darin Burnham.
