The Exchange Club of Richmond Hill recently named Caroline Odom as its Student of the Year.

The club each month during the school year names a Student of the Month, and the Student of the Year is chosen from among those winners. Awards are based on academic performance, community involvement and leadership. Monthly winners receive $100, with the annual winner getting a $1,000 scholarship.

The Exchange Club has been recognizing students for more than 30 years. Odom will go on to compete in the Georgia District Exchange Club against students from across the state.
