Four GBS Students Honored at Glenview's Civic Awards Dinner

Glenbrook South had three students honored at this year's Glenview Civic Awards Night.

Chris Lopresti was named as this year's Glenview Youth of the Year. Not only did Chris been an outstanding student, he has been an exemplary leader and person. His leadership is exemplified by this year's Canned Food Drive collection of 130,819 cans! In all facets of this canned food drive, Chris was always there to lend a hand and to work with others to keep them involved. High school leaders often feel that if they do it themselves, then they are effective leaders. However, Chris has grasped the concept in sharing the leadership and investing in others to help reach a goal. Chris is an outstanding young man who is most deserving of this honor.

Tom Foust, Zach Demertzis & Tyler Brown were all recognized with the Public Service Award for their bravery in saving a passenger from a car struck twice by oncoming trains. Their quick thinking resulted in the passenger being pulled from her car that was stuck on the railroad tracks.

Congratulations to these four outstanding Titans!
