Boom! Brilliance strikes again with #1LISD Super Kid Matthew Shields.

At River Ridge Elementary, you can count on the fifth-grader to do the right thing. His positive attitude and willingness to jump in and help anyoneโ€“student, teacher, or parentโ€“speaks volumes about who he is. Filled with modesty, Matthew would never brag on himself. His character, kindness, and integrity are unmatched,  truly leading by example. 

โ€œMatthew is one of a kind!โ€ River Ridge Elementary Principal Shelley Roberts said. โ€œAs a Rattler News crew member, he has become a vital part of our morning announcements. In addition, he shows kindness to others, brimming with respect and hard work. Iโ€™ve found so much joy seeing Matthew develop into such a great young man over the years here at River Ridge. He is off to do big things!โ€

Not only can you spot Matthew delivering the news, he also serves on the Wellness team and as a student ambassador. Outside of school, Matthew plays on the Four Points Pop Warner football team.

What an all-star! Congratulations, #1LISD Super Kid Matthew Shields!
