ABBY METCALF, DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH

Abby Metcalf, a senior from Plaistow and a member of the TRHS Class of 2016 was recently chosen as a “Diamond in the Rough” as a part of the Hidden Jewel Awards presented by The Greater Salem Chamber of Commerce and Salem Co-operative Bank.  This awards program honors the area’s most priceless women.  Abby was nominated by her school counselor, Lisa Petry last spring and was recently notified of her selection as one of two “Diamond in the Rough” Awards for 2015.  The recipients of this award show promise as a young woman of good character and quality that emulates leadership and community involvement.  Abby’s involvement in student council, peer outreach, student voice, and the Best Buddies Program at TRHS, along with her active role in the Plaistow Recreation Department, make her one of the Timberlane Community’s Hidden Jewels.  Abby will receive her honor in early October at a luncheon at the Merrimack Valley Golf Club.
