Coronado High School Senior Crowned “Miss Coronado Volunteer 2021″

The Miss San Diego County Volunteer pageant organization crowned its first Miss Coronado Volunteer, Lauren Griffin, on January 29, 2021.

Griffin, an 18 year old senior at Coronado High School, was chosen for her dedication to community service, excellence in education and commitment to physical health.

Her leadership in the “Student to Student” program helps to bring military and civilian students together to welcome new students, creates a positive environment, supports academic excellence and eases transitions. This program is close to her heart because she “feels a personal connection is a basic condition to strengthen the mental well-being of teens and young adults.”

After graduating from CHS this coming June, Lauren plans to pursue a degree in the medical field and is still considering offers between several prestigious colleges.

Lauren will represent Coronado and compete at the inaugural Miss California Volunteer competition this summer in Fresno, CA.

In addition to the crowning of Miss Coronado Volunteer, the Miss San Diego County Volunteer pageant organization will host a virtual pageant to crown Lauren’s “sister queen,” Miss San Diego Volunteer, and the winner will be announced on a live internet broadcast on February 20, 2021.
