The June Rey Azteca Student of the Month is Kristen Keinath, a standout Senior from Penncrest High School, who has been recognized for her outstanding dedication to both school and community, earning a Certificate of Achievement and a Gift Card from Rey Azteca, the generous sponsor of this program.
Kristen has never been one to back down from a challenge. During both her junior and senior years at Penncrest High School, she was dual-enrolled at Delaware County Community College, where she completed five college-level courses—earning an impressive 15 credits before even stepping foot on a university campus! Throughout all four years of high school, Kristen consistently achieved Distinguished Honor Roll status, showcasing her relentless drive and academic excellence.
Beyond the classroom, Kristen made her mark on campus life, serving on the Class Council for two years. Her passion for giving back shines through in her volunteer work at her former elementary school each summer, where she helps set up classrooms, organize books and supplies and helps to bring the hallways to life with vibrant decor.
Next fall, Kristen will be heading south to attend the University of South Carolina, where she plans to major in Sports and Entertainment Management. She is determined to break barriers in an industry traditionally dominated by men. “Sports management has long been a male-driven field, but I believe women have just as much to offer. We can be just as successful, just as influential,” shared Kristen
With her ambition, passion and unstoppable energy, Kristen is ready to take on the next chapter and leave her mark on the world of sports and entertainment. We applaud you Kristen, and can’t wait to hear all about your next chapter.
