One of 11 News Colorado's Grand Valley Power Students of the Week is being recognized again for the hard work and dedication she's put into achieving her dream of becoming a certified gemologist.
The Alternative Cooperative Education Program or "ACE" has named Angela “Gi-Gi” Hawkins its student of the year. G-G's ability to overcome hardships and still be dedicated to school and her future career make her a good representative for the "ACE" program.
The R–5 senior is currently working with two local jewelers to polish her craft. This is the first time an R–5 student has received this honor.
