Tallulah Falls School senior William ‘Trey’ Greene of Demorest has been named Habersham County Star Student. The prestigious award was presented at the February 16 Habersham Rotary Club meeting by Habersham Chamber of Commerce President Ellie Van Doornum.
This honor qualifies Greene to compete for STAR Student of the region later in the spring.
Greene, son of Sheila and Richard Greene, earned his class’s highest score on the Scholastic Achievement Test with an impressive score of 1590, the highest recorded score in the school’s history. As part of the STAR program, Greene selected upper school history teacher Adam Greiving of Clarkesville as the STAR teacher.
The Student-Teacher Achievement Recognition (STAR) program honors Georgia’s highest-achieving high school seniors and the teachers who have been most instrumental in their academic development, according to the PAGE (Professional Association of Georgia Educators) Foundation. This achievement is a testament to Greene’s hard work and dedication to his studies, as well as the guidance and support provided by his teacher.
“We are incredibly proud of Trey and his achievements. His hard work and dedication to his studies have paid off in a big way, and we are thrilled to see him recognized as the Habersham County STAR Student,” said TFS President and Head of School Larry Peevy. “We are also grateful to Adam Greiving for his excellent work as a teacher and for inspiring Trey and his classmates to achieve their best.”
