The Big Brothers Big Sisters Program of South Central Ohio is in the first year at Zane Trace and has made a huge impact on the students involved in the program. On Saturday, Allison Payton participated in the 2024 Ohio Miss Chillicothe Scholarship Program pageant and was named first runner-up! Congrats, Allison!
Allison is the "Big Sis" of Brinlee Kierns, a Zane Trace Elementary student in the program. Brinlee attended the pageant to show her support for her "Big Sis", who has supported her at school since they met in the Big Brothers Big Sisters program.
The "Bigs" and "Littles" in the program meet every Thursday to do activities together. The bond Allison and Brinlee have made through this program is a great example of the positive impact of the program!
