Bowling Green High School senior Jake Stucker was recognized Tuesday as the Exchange Club March Student of the Month.
Jake has done extremely well in the classroom maintaining a 4.4 grade point average. He is president of the National Honor Society and a member of the Spanish Honor Society and has found time to take several courses at BGSU.
He has participated on the baseball, track team and cross-country teams and has volunteered with Habitat for Humanity and the Toledo Arts Commission.
Jake has been quite active in the high school’s DECA program, which prepares students as leaders and entrepreneurs in marketing, finance, and other business ventures. He is particularly adept at entrepreneurship, having won two first places and a second place in Entrepreneurship Innovation in district and state competitions. A month ago he won a second place in the district for a Start-up Business Plan and last week won first place in state competition for his Independent Business Plan. He has attended the Ohio DECA Summer Leadership Retreat the past two summers.
Jake is planning to attend the Air Force Academy and major in some aspect of engineering. He has received two congressional nominations for appointment to go there. In addition, he has been offered an Air Force ROTC Scholarship and last year he attended a Society for American Military Engineers summer camp at the Air Force Academy where his team placed first in a STEM competition.
The Exchange Club meets at noon on Tuesdays at Stone Ridge Golf Club.
