During the June 27, 2022 Zephyrhills City Council meeting,
Zephyrhills Mayor Gene Whitfield shared an inspiring, heartfelt story of how Zephyrhills High School Agro-Science Teacher, LeAnne John, refused to give up on one of students, Chris LaRussa, who contemplated dropping out of school.
This caring, passionate educator encouraged and pushed Chris to continue to work hard to become a proud 2022 graduate of Zephyrhills High School.
Thank you to all teachers and school staff who champion for their students, and help make our wonderful
City of Zephyrhills community an even better place to live, work, play, and raise a family.
