Bryan Langley, City Manager for Goodyear, was our first speaker of the year! Bryan shared information about the city budget along with important projects that are in planning and implementation stages in the areas of transportation, recreation, water and economic development. The City of Goodyear is the 9th fastest growing city in the country. The transportation projects, which will be completed by 2030, will help with movement around the city and valley. Parks and Recreation developments included hiking trails and more fields for sports in the west valley. Economic development include businesses that ship products all over the country and restaurants coming to the GSQ (Goodyear Square). To enhance communication with the community, Bryan created a Customer Service and Innovation Department. Thank you Bryan for speaking to us today!

As Student Body President, she consistently goes above and beyond to make sure things get done, often following up with vendors, coordinating with other committees, and stepping in wherever she is needed without being asked.

Alissa was nominated by her Theatre teacher, Ms. Denise Royal, who shared this narrative: 
 
Alissa has really taken the baton of Leadership over the past year.  As a junior, she is the DEHS Thespian Vice-President, Varsity Women's Choir President, and is active as an Academy Ambassador.  Alissa was also selected by Arizona Thespians to be a State Leadership Officer (STO) for the 26-27 school year, further putting her skills on the front lines as the STO's are heavily involved in supporting the AZ State Thespian Festival in Nov., plan the Junior Troupe Festival (for middle schools) in April, and run the yearly AZ Thespian Leadership camp in Heber, AZ in July.  Alissa exhibits great qualities of a Leader through her excellent communication skills, organization & dedication to creating a welcoming and positive student body at Desert Edge.

This is the Rotary Peace Pole that was dedicated today at Camp Big West at the Wigwam that will be placed at the new Hilltop High School this fall.
