Clearly not a stranger to leadership roles, it’s no surprise that Dial is also a member of the Student Council and serves as the secretary of the Spanish Honor Society. Outside of school, he works at Liberty Apple Orchard and regularly volunteers to fight food insecurity.

In his limited free time, Dial golfs, plays video games, flies drones and hikes. He is also focused on readying his college applications, as he has big plans for after graduation. He hopes to attend college for either aerospace engineering or mechanical engineering.

“No matter how bad today is, this week is, or this month is, there is always a tomorrow,” Dial added. “Always take a moment to stop, drop your phone and disconnect, and if it ever gets tough, take a break.”

Congratulations to Justin Dial for this recognition by ECUSD7!
