As the academic year comes to a close, schools across the Round Rock Independent School District are celebrating mentors, partners and volunteers for their selfless donation of time, talents and treasure.

Each campus chose one individual or group to receive the honor of Campus Partner of the Year, Volunteer of the Year, Mentor of the Year and Youth Volunteer of the Year. Campuses honored these individuals and groups at various on-campus celebrations.

“We are blessed to live in such a caring community,” Community Partnerships Supervisor Rachael Brunson said. “At Round Rock ISD, we value the opportunity to form mutually beneficial partnerships with our community and we realize and appreciate the value our partners and volunteers bring to the District.”
