If she gets her way, Karah Harris will bring communities together through both volunteerism and professionalism.
“Serving my community is one of my greatest passions… Dedication to volunteer work throughout high school has taught me valuable lessons about the internal value that can stem from helping others who aren’t as fortunate,” said Karah who has been selected as one of Colorado Springs’ Best and Brightest students for 2020.
The daughter of Dierdre Dias, the Vista Ridge High School senior, 18, is honored to be selected for this recognition because it proves her hard work is finally paying off, she said.
“The opportunity to be selected as a Best and Brightest scholar means that, despite all the hardships I have dealt with in and out of school, I have developed tenacity and character that sets me apart from my peers; making me extremely grateful for all the trials I have experienced throughout high school,” Karah said.
