who exemplifies extraordinary skills in entrepreneurship, innovation, 
community impact and leadership.
   A student at Arvada High School, Alyssa has proven to be a leader

positive example for all students daily. Alyssa is the poster child for 
doing the right thing while also excelling in everything she puts her
