December 2019 Student Of The Month – Austin Buskirk
Austin Buskirk, was recognized and honored as the club’s December 2019 Student of the Month. At Cocalico, Austin’s activities include being Vice President of the National Honor Society, playing lacrosse and participating in Model United Nations which is an activity in which students can learn about diplomacy, international relations, and the United Nations. You have to wonder where Austin finds time since he has visited 16 different countries but he believes in the Lions Clubs motto of “We Serve” by representing the Lions clubs of the Cocalico School Area by serving on the Leaderboard of the Cocalico High School Leo Club, a Lions club service organization within the High School. He also volunteers with numerous other community activities. Austin was honored by being selected as 1 of 2 students from the state of Pennsylvania to speak at Ford’s Theatre. His future plans include attending Penn State’s Honors College and hopes to attend Medical School to become an anesthesiologist.
