Katelyn Lee is the January’s Dance Athlete of the Month. Lee is the daughter of Bethany and Dave Lee.

Lee is in 11th grade and has been dancing for 14 years.

Lee loves dance for many reasons, but mostly how dance relaxes her and takes away her stress about life.

To Lee, being Athlete of the Month means that she’s accomplished something in life. She’s “glad coaches recognize her effort.” She believes she’s been honored because she’s an upperclassman, and because she’s danced all her high school career so far, and she is a hardworking teammate.

In honor of her achievements, Sumpter Pharmacy has donated $100 to the ADM Scholarship Foundation.
