A D11 middle-schooler is being recognized for stepping up during an emergency.

Ignatius Barajas, a 7th-grader at North Middle School is being called a hero. While in Ms. Bricker's social studies class earlier this year, a fellow student started having a seizure. Ignatius didn't get scared or freeze up. He jumped into help immediately, alerting the front office, moving furniture and other potentially harmful objects out of the way, and keeping things clear for Ms. Bricker so she could assist the student.

Now, because of his help, Ignatius was awarded a certificate of appreciation for his heroic actions from D11 superintendent Dr. Nicholas Gledich and board of education director Julie Ott.
