At the district’s Jan. 20 Board of Education meeting, Robert Frost Middle School student Inaaya Khan was recognized for her outstanding leadership and dedication to her school community. Khan is a member of the National Junior Honor Society, a Gold Honor Roll student and a Project Wisdom Student of the Month. 

As a sixth grader, Khan presented Principal Dr. Eliana Levey with the idea of starting a Muslim Student Association modeled after the high school’s club. The following year, she became the founder and president of Robert Frost’s Junior Muslim Student Association.

“As the club's adviser, Dr. Levy has witnessed firsthand Inaaya’s leadership skills among her peers,” Superintendent James Cummings said. “She designs activities for each meeting, coordinates with high school’s MSA and advocates for her fellow students. She is an impressive individual with a bright future ahead, and Dr. Levy and I could not be more proud to recognize her as a student of distinction within the Deer Park School District.”
