Citizen of the Month – William Thomas

“Will Thomas is an exceptional student and community member but more importantly he is an exceptional person. Rarely do you find a young person that is so willing to give their time and energy to make the world around them better.

While attending Tucker High School, Will is not only an integral part of the 2020 graduating STEM class, but he has also participated in many extracurricular activities and community service events. There are way too many events and accolades to mention, but as an example, Will is currently volunteering as the student representative for Tucker’s Complete Count Census Committee. He is giving up countless evenings to work with the committee to ensure everyone in Tucker knows and understands the importance of this year’s census and how important it is we all participate. His insight on how to inform young people about the process and the application of census data is invaluable.

Will is a ‘show up and get it done’ type guy. If you have enjoyed the pollinator garden, nature walk and cleaner water at Kelley Cofer Park, you have benefited from Will’s efforts. If you have driven by the high school and noticed the beautiful flowers and the greenhouse, Will had a hand in those as well. If you see Will, you can also wish him and his VEX Robotics team good luck at the World Championship taking place in Louisville, Kentucky at the end of April. His team is again one of the 17 teams representing Georgia in this prestigious event.

I am proud to nominate Will Thomas as Citizen of the Month.”
