East Alton-Wood River Seniors Honored for Exceptional Service

EAST ALTON/WOOD RIVER - The Riverbend East Rotary Club has recognized East Alton-Wood River High School seniors Emma Glenn and LeBron Reed as its February Service Above Self award winners, honoring their leadership and service at the school, the club said.

The recognition was recently announced by the Riverbend East Rotary Club in the Riverbend area. The awards highlight students who demonstrate “the values of responsibility, leadership, and service” and reflect “the spirit of Rotary’s Service Above Self recognition,” according to information provided by the club.

Glenn, a senior, maintains a 3.614 CPA and serves as an office worker in the school’s Attendance Center during the first hour each day. The club said she is “known for being extremely helpful and dependable while assisting staff and students.”

“Emma's willingness to help others, lead by example, and represent her school with integrity makes her a deserving recipient of Rotary's Service Above Self recognition,” the club said.

Reed, also a senior, transferred to East Alton-Wood River High School during his junior year and has become “a respected leader,” according to the club. A member of the Cross Country and Track & Field teams, Reed specializes in the 400- and 800-meter runs. The club said he “leads his teammates through his dedication, work ethic, and positive example,” adding that he “carries himself with class and integrity throughout the school day” and is known for “genuine kindness toward both students and staff.”

A photo provided by the club shows club president Mark Smith presenting Glenn with her Service Above Self certificate. The club said Reed was unavailable.
