It is with immense pride that we honor Joshua Stocker with a rare dual recognition as both IYT’s Brother of the Month and our Academic Achievement Spotlight honoree. Joshua’s story is a powerful testament to strength, perseverance, and character.
Despite facing more challenges than most as a foster youth, he has consistently shown unwavering determination, kindness, and humility. He is always respectful, willing to help others, and his positive attitude uplifts everyone around him, making him a true role model within our brotherhood. This incredible character is the foundation for his academic excellence. His relentless focus and hard work have earned him one of Stockton Unified’s highest honors: the prestigious Hazelton Award. Furthermore, in recognition of his outstanding grades, Joshua has been accepted into the highly respected Saint Mary’s High School. He proves that resilience can overcome adversity, and his success is an inspiring reminder of what is possible when you refuse to give up. Congratulations, Joshua, on these exceptional and well-deserved honors!
