Melrose Elementary student awarded, garners national attention for generosity

A dollar bill has gone a long way and garnered national recognition for one EBR Schools student. Kelvin Ellis was recently featured on the “CBS Evening News” segment “On the Road.” Nine-year-old Kelvin was rewarded after generously giving his only dollar — part of the money he had earned for good grades — to a man he thought was homeless. Congratulations, Kelvin, for your kind and inspiring example.
