High School Students of the Month - April 2026

Lampeter-Strasburg teachers selected a student from each grade to be named the April 2026 Students of the Month. Freshman Asha Lindskog and sophomore Margo Nyn are the month’s Pioneer Superlatives - students committed to personal and academic growth - while junior Aidan Waters and senior Gabi Ramos are standard bearers for L-S students as Portrait of a Pioneer award winners.

Portrait of a Pioneer

He enjoys video games, music, and a variety of traditional and digital art, including 3D modeling and video essays. Aidan is unsure of his path after high school, but is interested in teaching, psychology, and STEM fields.

Gabi Ramos - Gabi is the daughter of OJ and Michelle Ramos of Lancaster. The art department nominated her as a talented student with a strong work ethic and a positive attitude, always willing to help others.
