Whiz Kid: Michael Schwoerer

Patch Whiz Kid of the Week

Name: Michael Schwoerer

School: Holy Child Catholic School

Accomplishment: Was awarded the Neumann Scholarship for 2011.

Key To Awesomeness: The fact that Michael was the fifth student awarded the Neumann Scholarship in six years is pretty awesome in itself, especially since the school has only been in existence for six years, according to the school’s Web site.

Patch would like to congratulate this youngster on his accomplishment.

Know a great kid who made Eagle Scout or did your local soccer team take the championship? They may be our next Patch Whiz Kid honoree.

Each week, Roxborough-Manayunk Patch will seek suggestions from readers for individual kids, youth groups, teens, and even sports teams that wow us with their accomplishments. We want to hear about these amazing children and teens and select one each week as the Patch Whiz Kid.
