Dr.

District Wide Student of the Month. Johnny has a
story to tell - one that teaches. Through his journey,
he has overcome difficult struggles by facing them
with strength and the resolve to survive and succeed.
A unique aspect of Johnny’s life is that,
in his youth, he survived the genocide taking place
in the country of his birth, Liberia. Against all
odds, he eluded the violence in Liberia and escaped
death, fleeing to refugee camps in Ghana. In the
refugee camps, Johnny rose up to become a leader
to fellow refugees, giving direction and encouragement
to those around him. He continues to provide support
for his displaced siblings.
Mr.
Gayechuway is being recognized for his outstanding
academic achievement, collaboration, civic engagement,
and how he demonstrates ethical leadership. Besides
being a full-time student, he also works full-time
in the medical field and is a dedicated husband
and parent. His civic engagements include serving
weekly in his church, and also assisting with community
relief efforts.
