Student of the Month!
Esmeralda is always eager to help. She does her work and she is very respectful. Esmeralda is great with helping teammates succeed along with her. She also seeks out opportunities to further her education by showing up to after school events, such as literacy night. She is a treasure in her classes and our school. Way to go Esmeralda!
