Andy Hernandez Salazar, Jr just graduated from EdVenture Charter School in Palm Beach County, an ESE Center High School for students who struggle to make progress in a traditional school setting.

We spoke with Andy about his experience at EdVenture Charter School, his desire to help others, and plans for the future. He recently earned a Serv Safe Food Handler certification and plans to attend Palm Beach State College.

A straight A student with a 4.0 GPS, Andy voluntarily arrives at school early each morning to assist the kitchen staff with prep and set up and checks in on classmates throughout the day. "I take care of every student like they're part of my family. When he is not at school -- which he calls his second home. When not at school, Andy participates in a bowling league and cares for his many pets.

"In the short time that Andy has been at EVCS he has encountered several unfortunate life experiences, including the sudden death of his mother. With all that life has thrown his way, Andy never allowed his negative experiences to derail him. Andy is a bright light at EVCS his resiliency is inspiring," says Barbara Fitz, Executive Director, EVCS.
