Achieving the rank of Eagle Scout is an honor that most Boy Scouts only dream of, but a Manhattan teenager recently became one of the few after completing his Eagle Scout project.

Nick Higgs, a recent graduate of Manhattan High, says he knew he wanted to give back to USD 383 when it came time to complete his Eagle Scout project.

Higgs worked with students at Lee Elementary to design an outdoor reading space with benches and flowers for the children to enjoy.

Higgs says the project required extensive planning, and he also had to complete an Eagle Scout binder.

Higgs has received recognition from local politicians and even had a flag flown in his honor at the Capitol Building in Topeka.
