Benny Landamo has earned March Scholar of the Month honors at Valley Forge High School, a recognition that reflects the kind of leadership the Patriots community values most.

Nevaeh Hall March Performer of the Month belongs to Nevaeh Hall, whose fast start to the track season has given Valley Forge High School plenty to celebrate.
