Wise beyond His Years; G-C senior is driven to help others, including his five siblings

Preston Wise is wise beyond his years.

The 18-year-old will graduate from Greenfield-Central High School next week, but his high school experience hasn’t been stereotypical.

Wise has been working roughly 30 hours a week at the Greenfield Kroger store over the past year to help support his family, which includes his mom, a younger brother and four younger half-siblings. He works five days a week, including eight-hour shifts on the weekends.

He plans to study civil engineering at Purdue University Fort Wayne this fall after graduating from high school June 3 with academic honors.
