October Kiwanis Student of the Month: Carly Kuhse
Senior Carly Kuhse is the daughter of Jodi and Chad Kuhse. She is very involved in school and extracurriculars and holds a weighted GPA of 4.13. Kuhse’s favorite three classes in high school have been Instrumental Methods because it was fun for her to learn how to play different instruments, Medical Interventions, because it allowed her to learn all things medical that interest her, and Band because she was able to be involved in marching band. Kuhse has been involved in many school and community activities, some of these include 4H, Soccer, and Jazz Choir. From these activities, she has learned life skills such as leadership, livestock skills, and what it means to have a good stage presence. She also has spent lots of time volunteering for AHIENZ-57, Adel Kiwanis, Adel Soccer, and Meals from the Heartland. In terms of her plans for next fall, Kuhse is deciding between Iowa State University, The University of Missouri, or The University of Illinois for a degree in Animal Science or Biology. Carly is honored to be nominated as a Kiwanis Student of the Month and feels she has been honored with this title because of her involvement in the school and the community.
In honor of her achievements, Kiwanis of Adel has donated $50 to the ADM Scholarship Foundation.
Your donation will support the student journalists of Adel DeSoto Minburn High School. Your contribution will allow us to purchase equipment, attend conferences, and cover our annual website hosting costs.



![Rhyan Miller is the April student of the month. Miller is the daughter of Charity and Rich Miller, and has maintained a 3.925 GPA. Her three favorite classes in high school have been drama as literature, Prostart II, and news journalism. Miller participates in cross country, theater, individual and large group speech, the prostart team, student council, NHS, silver cord, and track. She feels that her experiences in those activities have made her more extroverted, sharing that she is "not afraid of [her] own voice anymore." Miller plans to attend Winona State University to major in psychology and minor in political science. Her advice to others is to "Fake it 'till you make it." She feels she was selected as student of the month due to her increased active presence in the classroom. She is also thankful for the good parking spot. In honor of her achievements, Raccoon Valley Bank has donated $100 to the ADM Scholarship Foundation.](https://blackandredgister.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/20260427_104331-600x450.jpg)
