Two St. Louis Public School students will take center stage at the next two World Series games as the St. Louis Cardinals take on the Detroit Tigers.

Anthanisha McMiller, a 5th grader at Gateway Elementary will throw out the first pitch at ~~tonightâ€™s~~ tomorrow night’s game at Busch stadium, and Donald Buckner, a junior at Gateway High School will throw out the first pitch at ~~Thursday night’s~~ Game 5.

Both students were chosen by the Herbert Hoover Boys & Girls Club of America for the positive leadership both in the classroom and at Herbert Hoover. “This is a great honor and we are very proud of Anthanisha and Donald for their hard work and commitment to the Boys & Girls Club,” said Superintendent Diana Bourisaw.

Kudos, to the Kids. As always, thanks to Dr. Flint Fowler, School Board member and Executive Director of Herbert Hoover Boys & Girls Club for shining the spotlight on area youth.

After All…Nia knows

The Cards + The Kids = Victory!
