FRESNO, Calif (FOX26) \u2014 It\u2019s time to shine a spotlight on this April’s Superintendent\u2019s Superstar, Anise Albizu, an eighth grader making a big impact both in and out of the classroom.<\/p>\n
Anise, is a student at Riverdale Elementary School.<\/p>\n
School officials describe Anise as a standout student who is resilient, confident, and driven to succeed. <\/p>\n
She currently serves as Associated Student Body (ASB) President and maintains a perfect 4.0 GPA, all while staying actively involved in a variety of campus programs.<\/p>\n
Anise is part of the Safe School Ambassadors program, a leadership role reserved for students who have a strong, positive influence among their peers. <\/p>\n
She is also enrolled in leadership class, where staff say she consistently contributes ideas to improve campus culture and volunteers to help put those plans into action.<\/p>\n
Whether speaking in front of large crowds or helping behind the scenes, Anise has become a familiar and reliable presence on campus. <\/p>\n
She frequently serves as a master of ceremonies at school assemblies, confidently addressing both students and staff.<\/p>\n
Her leadership was especially evident during an eighth-grade community service project, a Thanksgiving luncheon for local senior citizens. <\/p>\n
Anise helped organize the event and welcomed guests with a heartfelt message recognizing their contributions to the community. <\/p>\n
She continued as MC throughout the event, demonstrating poise and enthusiasm.<\/p>\n
Beyond academics and leadership, Anise is also an athlete, competing on the school\u2019s softball team.<\/p>\n
School administrators say she is someone they can always count on, often stepping in to help when needed. <\/p>\n
During a recent spring picture day, Anise assisted staff by helping coordinate student movement throughout the campus.<\/p>\n
Despite her busy schedule, educators say Anise remains focused on her academics, making them her top priority.<\/p>\n
District leaders say she exemplifies what it means to be a well-rounded student, someone who not only takes advantage of opportunities but actively creates them.<\/p>\n
When asked how it feels to be awarded April’s Superintendent Superstar, Anise says she was in disbelief. <\/p>\n
“I did not know this was possible at all, and when my principal told me why, I was in disbelief and I almost started crying because I found out after my softball game and I was in tears,” says Anise. <\/p>\n
Anise started at Riverdale Elementary during her sixth grade year after moving from Lemoore, and says she felt set back. <\/p>\n
She says she was determined to keep up her good grades and hard work.<\/p>\n
“At first I started out as secretary for my seventh grade year and then I found out I could be president,” says Anise. “So I immedietely jumped on to president, and I ran for it and I won the election.”<\/p>\n
Anise is also on the cheer team, but despite her busy schedule, she says she tries her best to stay focused. <\/p>\n
“I stay on task and I remember that I’m doing it for my mom, I’m doing it for my dad, so I need to keep doing it,” says Anise.<\/p>\n
Her goal is to get into UCLA and work to become a lawyer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"FRESNO, Calif (FOX26) \u2014 It\u2019s time to shine a spotlight on this April’s Superintendent\u2019s Superstar, Anise Albizu, an…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":272105,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[31],"tags":[112,114,113],"class_list":["post-272104","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-fresno","tag-fresno","tag-fresno-headlines","tag-fresno-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/272104","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=272104"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/272104\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/272105"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=272104"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=272104"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=272104"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
