🌟 Bright Shining Sun Spotlight 🌟
Congratulations to Southridge Sun Audrey Bateman for being selected as one of just 25 student interns across Washington state out of more than 30,000 students reached through the program! ☀️
Audrey has helped more than 159 students open their first checking accounts while leading and promoting our student-run branch outside the cafeteria. She has supported events like Pink Week Carnival, Bite of Reality, and football activities while balancing Track, academics, and leadership responsibilities.
Through her work, Audrey has helped fellow Suns build financial literacy skills in budgeting, credit, saving, and investing. We are so proud of her leadership, dedication, and impact on our school community! The future is bright for this amazing Sun! ☀️💙💛
