Oak Mountain Middle School has a standout 8th grader—Austyn Eddins, who’s not just a softball player and cheer captain, but also a dedicated aide in Mr. White’s special needs class. Austyn’s favorite part of school is working with those students, calling it the highlight of her day. She’s got big dreams, too: honor roll, high school adventures, and eventually a career in the military or law enforcement. It’s inspiring to see a young person so passionate about helping others and pushing herself. What do you think helps kids stay motivated and involved at school? #Education #K12 #OakMountain
