WALTONVILLE (WSIL) -- Every week we like to point out children from across our region doing great things in their community.
Jason Hurst has some great selections to choose from to pick the newest Wicked Awesome Kid.
The entries have been creative and heartfelt, but one really jumped out at Jason for this weeks selection.
Meet Gunner , Luke , Jack, and Lilly. All four are students in Niki Wisniewski's reading and English class at Waltonville Grade School.
The internet was down friday, and Niki informed the students in her class that remote learning wasn't possible that day.
Twenty minutes later she received a message from these four seventh graders. They created a Google Meet.
The students were eager to learn and took matters into their own hands.
That's what I call Wicked Awesome.
