A twelfth grader at DCHS prepared a winning essay in tribute to his parents for the honor of “Parents of the Month” for November.
Daniel and Karie Tucker will receive a certificate from the school and a gift card for a meal at F.Z. Webb & Sons Soda Foundation. They were unable to attend the presentation of the award last week.
“Shon Tucker wrote an essay about why his parents are deserving of this parents of the month award,” said Assistant DCHS Principal Seth Willoughby.
“I wrote this essay because I know how my parents are and what they have always done for me,” said Shon. “They are always there for me when I need them and they always support me in everything I do no matter what it is. I just wanted to show some appreciation toward them for that,” he said.
Shon said he plans to join the U.S. Army National Guard after he graduates.
