Brad Dinwiddie is worthy of being selected as “student of the week” due to his contribution to our school district in Eldon.  In addition to being a great student athlete, Brad is best known for his positive personality and his generous attitude toward volunteering to assist anyone in need.  Brad is often nominated to leadership positions among his peers and has developed into a greater motivator for other students to have high expectations for themselves.  Brad was recently nominated and is currently serving on MSHSAA SAC (student advisory council) to promote sportsmanship and to serve as a leader among schools in Missouri.  His essay earned him a spot within the group of Missouri athletes that traveled to Indianapolis to represent the student athletes from our state.  Brad has been a crucial role in our attempt to recreate a positive image in Eldon for all of our students and faculty.

Brad is involved in FCA, FBLA, Athletics, NHS, Student Council, and is a member of Ninth Street Christian Church.

Brad will pursue a career in finance by attending a four year university and participate in football.

Brad currently has over 1200 yards rushing on the season with over 300 return yards on special teams.  He is a team captain and starts on Offense and Defense.
