During his high school career, Logan was involved in Band, Jazz Band, Mad Brass, Pep Band, Golf, Wrestling, Soccer, Bass Fishing Team, Math Team, World Culture Club, Book Club, and RAD (Reed-Custer Against Drugs). He is also a member of the National Honor Society, Student Council, and Safe School Ambassadors.

His future plans are to attend an as of yet undecided college, major in Biology, and eventually attend medical school in hopes to become an Orthopedic Surgeon.

Here are a few thoughts from Logan’s teachers.

Mr. Frieders simply says, “Logan Bean. What a guy. He always has a smile on his face, is fun to talk to, and (above all else) has superb drip.” Mrs. Arseneau asks “Is it okay to have a favorite student? Because Logan Bean makes a very strong case! Logan is a one-of-a-kind student who has been a natural leader from day one. He brings a bright smile, positive attitude, a great sense of humor, or a random fun fact every day. He has fun while learning, which makes teaching fun! I feel so honored to have had the privilege of being his teacher. Logan is exceptionally bright, talented, kind to everyone he meets, and a young man of faith and outstanding character. Quite simply, he is the kind of person I hope my own sons grow up to be. Logan has an incredible future ahead of him, and I am eager to watch him shine in his next chapter!” Ms. Chinski thinks that Logan is “caring and kind. He has a bright personality and always has a smile on his face. He is super smart and has a great future ahead!” Mrs. Meyr remarks “What a phenomenal human being! Logan is personable and friendly. He has a maturity about him that is to be admired. Logan is thoughtful in conversations and truly thinks about others. Anytime he sees me, he takes the time to say hello and asks how I’m doing. He is a fantastic role model for others. I’m very excited to see what great things he does in life. What a privilege it is to know him.” Mrs. Lee appreciates that Logan is “such a bright light at Reed-Custer! His smile and cheerful greeting have a way of brightening everyone’s day. Logan is incredibly kind, funny, and intelligent, but my favorite attribute of his is how he has a way of making everyone around him feel welcome. He often goes out of his way to include others and ensure every voice is heard. I have absolutely loved watching Logan mature and grow throughout high school. He is a wonderful example to others of hard work, perseverance, and positivity. I have really enjoyed having Logan in my math classes for two years and will miss his ability to make us all smile!” Mrs. Copeland believes that Logan is “truly one of the nicest kids I know. He is always smiling, cheerful, and providing positivity to those around him. Logan is very smart and also a very empathetic person. He does what is right even when it is hard and makes sure that everyone around him feels included. I am proud of the young man he is and continues to be.” Mrs. Rankin is thankful that Logan “brings such a great, positive energy to the class. In the short time I’ve had him as a student, his kindness and enthusiasm have made a huge impact. He’s a true standout as both a student and human being.” Mrs. Bain says that Logan is “such a fun student to have in class!  He’s got a great sense of humor, but knows when to turn it off and work hard.  A well-deserved spotlight winner!” Mr. Gleixner thinks that Logan is “a great student, athlete, and leader. He always has a positive attitude and is someone that younger students can look up to. Always a smile on his face, Logan truly is an example of what Comet is.” Mrs. Kealey is glad that Logan is “an awesome student and person! He always goes above and beyond to make sure each student in the class is included. He strives for excellence in his academics but is known even more for how he makes the other students laugh and feel welcome. He is a great example for younger students and his peers alike!”    Ms. Conley appreciates that Logan is “a bright light packed with endless humor. He is a stellar student, but he is an even better human. He is kind, genuine, and personable. His bubbly greetings in the hallway always make my day!” Mrs. A. Robinson believes that Logan is “a wonderful human being! He is hardworking, intelligent, generous, kind, and a friend to everyone. Logan is someone you want to be on your side cheering you on. It has been great having him here.” Mrs. Edgar says that Logan is “an awesome kid! He never fails to say hello in the hallways with a huge smile on his face, or stop in just to chat. He is the type of student to always ask how you are and actually care about the response! He does a great job at making others feel seen and included! Although I’ve never had the opportunity to teach him in class, it is obvious that Logan is a great student and person!” Mrs. Redwitz comments that Logan is “a friendly and intelligent young adult who is always willing to help out. He genuinely cares about others and makes an effort to include everyone. He is approachable and brings enthusiasm to everything he does. His kindness and ability to connect with others make him someone people naturally look up to.” Mrs. Vogler remarks that Logan has “such an infectious smile and is so kindhearted!  He is always willing to help out, gets his work done and knows how to brighten up your day!!  I wish him all the best!” Mrs. Dennis is thankful that Logan is “kind, considerate, talented, and smart.  He has a great attitude about life and his joy is infectious!” Mr. Kristofer thinks that Logan has “a bright and charismatic personality, and clearly shows how much he cares for others through his actions constantly.” Mr. Wolf thinks that Logan is “a wonderfully kind young man with a great sense of humor.  I have never actually had him in class, but every interaction I have had with him has always been a positive one.  He is a terrific kid whose future is a very bright one indeed.”

As a final thought, Logan’s advice to younger students is, “Everyone has good days and bad days. When you’re having a good day, why not give someone else a little bit of yours; you might just make their bad day a little bit better.”

On behalf of the teachers and staff at RCHS, we would like to congratulate Logan Bean as the September winner of the Senior Spotlight.
