Sam Stous Fine Arts Student Of the Month For November
Sam Stous, a senior at ADM, is the son of Kimberly and Steven Scott and is one of two Fine Arts Students of the Month for November.
Stous is involved in the play, band and also cross country. He has learned discipline and work ethic from these activities, and he has also been able to branch out of his comfort zone. Stous is the crew manager backstage for the musical this fall, The Addams Family.
Stous believes that other people should participate in band and play because it’s a good way to stimulate your brain, and the outcomes are really rewarding especially when it’s the weekend of the play, and when it is a concert night.
To Stous, “It means a lot [being Fine Arts Student Of the Month] because I’ve worked really hard all throughout high school.”
Stous believes that he has been honored as Fine Arts Student of the Month because in all the activities he’s done, he’s never held a designated leadership position, but he does his best to be a leader and a role model despite that.
In recognition of his achievements, Lincoln’s Savings Bank has donated $100 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)
