We are proud to recognize Armond Cholmeley-Jones, a dynamic and accomplished junior at Penncrest High School, as the November Student of the Month. In recognition, Armond received a Certificate of Achievement and a gift card, generously provided by Rey Azteca, the sponsor of this award program.
Armond is an Honor Roll student and a proud member of the National Honor Society, recognized for his leadership, service and academic excellence. He earned 1st Place in the District World Language Awards for Latin and continues to challenge himself as he prepares for college.
An accomplished athlete, Armond plays both soccer and baseball at Penncrest. He captained the freshman soccer team and has been the varsity goalie for the past two seasons, helping lead his team to the 2024 playoffs. Beyond competition, he supports Penncrest Athletics’ Fall and Winter Festivals, inspiring younger students to get involved in sports and volunteered at the first annual Future Lions Soccer Clinic, running drills and activities for elementary students.
Service is a core part of Armond’s life. He supports the Delco Food Bank by collecting donations, sorting items and assisting at community events. He also volunteers at Rose Tree Soccer Club (RTSC) intramurals by running concessions and fostering school spirit. A parishioner at St. Mary Magdalen Church, he has played goalie for both JV and Varsity CYO soccer, guiding his team to an Archdiocese championship in a penalty-kick shootout.
Armond’s commitment to mentoring shines through his work as an RTSC camp counselor and certified referee, where he encourages younger athletes. He also participates in the Pickleball Club for fun and teamwork, and the PACT Club, helping care for the local community. Whether tutoring teammates, collaborating on school projects or picking up trash at the beach, Armond is always eager to contribute. Armond hopes to pursue a future as an entrepreneur or in technology.
What an incredible source of light you are, Armond, for other students and faculty, as well as the Newtown Edgmont community as a whole!
