We know there are kids out there doing great things, and we want to recognize them.
So do you know a child who goes above and beyond to help those in need? How about a student who's constantly setting the bar higher day by day? Or maybe a youngster who's endured an amazing journey already in life?
Solon Patch is looking for parents, schools and organizations to nominate a valedictorian, sports team, school club member, and any other outstanding youngster for our weekly feature, Whiz Kid.

Whether they're a math whiz, a soccer whiz, a fundraiser whiz or anything in between, we want your nominations.
We want to stress that this is not a competition. We will be featuring a Solon Whiz Kid each week on Wednesdays, so the more the merrier!
