Lenger is a senior at Civic Memorial. He has been a member of the school’s trap team since his freshman year, and he is also a part of the Riverbend CEO Program this year. This program encourages students to develop a business plan and start a business. It requires students to take an additional class early in the mornings and work hard to achieve their goals. Lenger has more than proven himself throughout the program.

His hard work extends beyond the classroom and into the real world. Lenger’s initiative has helped him build a lawn care business that he oversees throughout the spring, summer and fall. It’s not easy to run his own business, but Lenger makes sure each customer is satisfied. He demonstrates responsibility and dedication with every job.

With such an admirable work ethic and a positive attitude, Lenger has an impressive future ahead of him. He plans to go to Lewis and Clark Community College to study industrial electricity.
