Kiwanis Humanitarian Student of the Month, Alexis Nemechek, is the daughter of Amber and Braden Nemechek. She has a GPA of 3.97 and has volunteered with meals, services, and Sunday school at her church and various activities at the Fire Department as part of her involvement in the Humanitarian Cord for Service program.
In addition to Humanitarian Cord, Nemechek has been involved in NHS, track, FCA, Student Council, lifting, and youth group. From these activities, she has learned “how to be a leader and how to work hard.”
A couple of Nemechek’s favorite classes in high school have been culinary arts and P.E. because they are fun, and she enjoys having P.E. with friends. Math classes with Mr. Schneider were also a highlight of her years in high school.
Her advice to others on how to be successful in school and life is to get work done on time and “be open to trying new things.”
This fall Nemechek will be attending the University of Iowa to major in exercise science, then she will go on to graduate school to become a pediatric physical therapist.
Nemechek is thankful to be selected for this recognition and believes it is her hard work at school that is being recognized.
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)
